Paul Weller - Foot Of The Mountain lyrics

Like a dream on the ocean Always drifting away And i can't catch up She just skips away - on the tide Sometimes a great notion Can lead you astray So weak to devotion So strong to desire Baby, baby, baby won't you let me ride Take me off on your sail boat ride Come on now angels, are on your side But she slips away - oh, and never stays Like mercury gliding A silver teardrop that falls And i will never hold her Through my fingers she's gone At the foot of the mountain Such a long way to climb How will i ever get up there - Though i know i must try Baby, baby, baby won't you let me ride Take me off on your sail boat ride Come on now angels, are on your side But she slips away - oh, and never stays Like a dream on the ocean Always drifting away And i can't catch up She just skips away - on the tide She just slips away - on the tide Skips away - as she glides
