On a mountain up north
i will build a small house
made out of wood, stone and straw
i'll let nobody in
neither family nor friends
nor the postman can come
This escape can't keep going on
'cause i can't take it no more
i'm not so strong
I will sit there and stare
when the ocean runs wild
until i'll forget your name
then i'll burn up the straw
take it down stone by stone
and make a raft of the wood
This escape can't keep going on
'cause i can't take it no more
i'm not so strong
On a mountain up north
i will build a small house
until i forget your name
This escape can't keep going on
'cause i can't take it no more
i'm not so strong
(repeat)
