LYRIC FOR SALE

By Kiah Penfield

How are things on your side of the mountain?
Is your family glad to see you?
And do you miss me when
Taylor songs play on your Spotify?
Are gas prices there way too high?
Hey, could you tell your sister hi from me?
And maybe tell me how you had the nerve to leave?

It’s just 70 miles as the crow flies
But it’s nearly five hours and one too many lies
We used to talk for hours and stare up at its peak
But now we’re on opposing sides and barely ever speak
And I wonder can you see the moon shining at night?
Was losing me worth being right?
Do you ever regret the way that things went down and
Do you miss me on your side of the mountain?

Have you met a girl on your side of the mountain?
Does she hang out with your family on weekends?
Does she take it with a smile
When you put her love on trial?
And would you give her up for me
If I took your apology?

It’s just 70 miles as the crow flies
But it’s nearly five hours and one too many lies
We used to talk for hours and stare up at its peak
But now we’re on opposing sides and barely ever speak
And I wonder can you see the moon shining at night?
Was losing me worth being right?
Do you ever regret the way that things went down and
Do you miss me on your side of the mountain?

And my Sun rises in the same place where yours sets
So we can only see each others’ silhouettes
And you’re dry in that rain shadow
While I’m out here watching snow
And I’d give anything for what we left behind
But 10,000 feet is more than I can climb

It’s just 70 miles as the crow flies
But it’s nearly five hours and one too many lies
I miss talking for hours while we’d stare up at its peak
But now we’re on opposing sides and barely ever speak
And I know that you must see the moon shining at night
And losing me must be worth you being right
I can still regret the way that things went down and
Know that I’ll never see your side of the mountain

Your side of the mountain
Your side of the mountain
