To the Mountains - Lizzy McAlpine

Oh, I’m headed to the mountains

I’ll be back in a week or two

Don’t you try to reach me 'cause I won’t pick up for you

I’ve got some things I need to do

Hmmmm

Oh I’m headed to the mountains

Where the air is sweet and new

Don’t you try to reach me 'cause I don’t want to talk to you

I’ve got some thinking to do

I’m trying to let go

I think it could help being alone

And I’m trying not to let you make me cry

I’ve spilled too many tears

And I think I deserve to be alone

And don’t you try to reach me while I pick myself up and go

I’ve got to do this on my own

I need to build myself a home

Ohhhhh

Oh, I’m headed to the mountains

The only place I feel at peace

And I knew you’d come after me so I threw away your keys

But I know you’d never go when I say leave

I’m headed to the mountains… don’t wait up for me
