The Mountain
Embracing Loss: Finding Hope Beyond Farewell
Lyrics
It's funny now you've gone
Reflecting on your absence with a sense of humor.
All the words have come
Expressing that all the words have surfaced or become clear after your departure.
But if I reach the end
Contemplating reaching the end of a journey or life before completing goals.
Before I'm done
Recognizing the uncertainty of life's duration.
May I be the only one
Expressing a desire to be the sole witness to a significant event or realization.
To watch it in the wind
Reflecting on possibilities and past experiences.
What may be and what has been
Acknowledging the coexistence of what might happen and what has already occurred.
For though the rain will fall
Recognizing that challenges (rain) are universal.
Down upon us all
Enduring challenges affecting everyone.
The sun will come again
Finding hope in the belief that the sun will rise again after challenges.
From the mountaintop
Anticipating a positive perspective from a high point, possibly metaphorical (mountaintop).
Where my sorrow always stops
Indicating that personal sorrow ceases at the mountaintop.
I will see you there
Expressing a desire to reunite in a peaceful place.
To let go of your cares
Suggesting releasing worries while being carried away, possibly by the metaphorical raindrops.
Carried off in the raindrops
Concluding with the imagery of cares being carried off in the raindrops.
