[Verse One]
The sun rises up over all the mountain tops
And tears drip gently from the clouds
As trees drink by waters deep I sit beside the lake
And cry though scarcely make a sound

[Chorus]
Oh, and I can’t stop you from coming to
The conclusion that I am not the man for you
But I can’t pray nor wish you well
As I stand back up and I do it all again

["Ooh" vocalizations]

[Verse Two]
I want to sail my ship into a dark and tender sea
And I crash its bow upon the waves
I’ve never surrendered
I went down with my ship
And I vowed I’d never sail again

[Chorus]
Oh, and I can’t stop you from coming to
The conclusion that I am not the man for you
But I can’t pray nor wish you well
As I stand back up and I do it all again
["Ooh" vocalizations]

[Verse Three]
I watched as your car skidded out the parking lot
Its lights lit up the interstate
And I nevеr would have guessed that you’d lеave me standing here
All alone by the mountains and the lake

[Chorus]
And it makes me sad that you saw me
As nothing more disposable as company
But I can’t pray nor wish you well
As I stand back up and I do it all again

["Ooh" vocalizations]

["Oh" vocalizations]
