The Gray Havens - Under The Mountain lyrics

Under the mountain I came Searching for the doors I could not help myself Oh gatekeeper, why does the brightest star Shine here and nowhere else? This beauty I’ve never known before Drums crash, gates rising My soul dances like fire With stained gla** we try But even Michael Angelo could not describe This ceiling above me Where angels cry Alleluia, Alleluia, Welcome home Yes I was home So gatekeeper laughing at me Bring your keys lets go ‘Cuz I here a city sing, Alleluia, Alleluia Bright-eyed he whispered There’s a crowd around the thrown Yeah, I’ll take you to the King Oh, Oh, Oh Drums join the trumpets, a’ ringin’ Church bells like fire They light music in cannons that Pachelbel would never think to write The Son running toward me The kingdom cried Alleluia, Alleluia, Welcome home They cried, Alleluia, you’re home They cried, Alleluia, you’re home They cried, Alleluia, you’re home They cried, Alleluia, you’re home Drums crash, gates rising My soul dances like fire With stained gla** we try But even Michael Angelo could not describe This ceiling above me Where Angels cry Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Welcome home Yes, I was home
