Some White Mountain
Journey Beyond the White Peaks
Lyrics
Over some white mountain right in front of me
Expressing a view of a white mountain directly in front, setting the scene.
I imagine life is but a perfect dream
Contemplating that life is an idealized and flawless dream.
You finally see me how I'm meant to be seen
Desiring to be perceived authentically by others.
So if I'm lost along the way
Acknowledging the possibility of losing one's way in life's journey.
Don't start your crying
Advising against shedding tears if the speaker becomes lost.
I could've been lost any day
Emphasizing that being lost is a potential occurrence on any day.
Now that I'm gone
Reflecting on the speaker's departure or absence.
You be a dear turn my sheets down
Requesting a gesture of care to turn down the sheets in the speaker's absence.
Wait by the window 'til I come around
Instructing someone to wait patiently for the speaker's return by the window.
I wasn't indeed what I seemed to be
Acknowledging a discrepancy between appearance and reality.
Over some white mountain right in front of me
Repeating the mention of the white mountain as a prominent visual element.
We agree our love is like an anchor
Mutual agreement on the symbolism of their love as an anchor.
We believe our luck is in our song
Shared belief in the fortunate nature of their relationship expressed through a song.
So if I'm lost along the way
Reiterating the theme of potential loss in the speaker's journey.
Just start your singing
Suggesting that singing is a suitable response to the speaker's absence.
I'll follow your lines any day
Indicating a willingness to follow the lines of the song to guide the lost speaker home.
All the way home
Expressing commitment to accompany the speaker all the way home.
You be a dear turn my sheets down
Repeating the request to care for the speaker's space in their absence.
Play by the window til I come around
Instructing to play by the window until the speaker returns.
It wasn't indeed what it seemed to be
Reiterating the theme of being different from initial perceptions.
Over some white mountain right in front of me
Echoing the opening line, emphasizing the presence of the white mountain.
