I Never Asked To Be Your Mountain by Beth Orton Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I never asked to be your mountain
I never asked to fly
Remember when you came to me?
And told me of his lies
You didn't understand my love
You don't know why I try

[Pre-Chorus]
And the rain was falling on that day
And damn the reason why

[Interlude]

[Verse 2]
I've been gone too long
Now I'm home to stay
And I'm sailing all my sins
And I'm climbing all my fears
You can't swim my waters if I can't walk your land
[Interlude]
