Fire on the Mountain Songtext
von Rob Thomas

Fire on the mountain
Through the fields
Save yourself
There′s evil in the garden
You don't see it
I can tell

How do you sleep while the city′s burning?
Where do you go when you can't go home?
How do you drink when there's blood in the water?
Where do you turn when the world moves on?
When the world moves on
On

Fire on the mountain
You can feel it against your skin
You′re standing by the river
Let the river take you in


How do you sleep while the city′s burning?
Where do you go when you can't go home?
How do you drink when there′s blood in the water?
Where do you turn when the world moves on?
When the world moves on
When the world moves on
On

I see smoke out on the horizon
Mama, get your baby take it down to the water
I feel the wind like a promise broken
I see the future but it's getting farther
I see smoke out on the horizon
Mama, get your baby take it down to the water
I feel the wind like a promise broken
I see the future but it′s getting farther

How do you sleep while the city's burning?
Where do you go when you can′t go home?
How do you drink when there's blood in the water?
Where do you turn when the world moves on?
When the world moves on
When the world moves on
On
