lyrics

SHANGHAI MOUNTAIN

In the trees I find
Shadows tall as a pine.
As I climb, I see,
I wish I was a fish,
In a mountain stream.

Oooh oooh

If there’s sun on the path
Let’s put all our shadows in that.
Bring in the night
We sing,
Wish I was a bird
In the wind

Oooh oooh

If you lose love, beware
It can feel cold as the northern air.
So tonight, run with me
And we can be coyotes,
In the breeze

And the water laughs for free
As the shadows wrap around the trees
I wish I was, in the ground
So I could move like a rabbit
Not making a sound.
