Avalanche Lyrics - Songs Of Love And Hate - Leonard Cohen

Getting sick of starting over 

On the same 

Argument 

We could sit around and talk it over 

Or take a trip 

To clear our minds 

At the entrance of Mount Wilson 

It's feeling like the right decision 

Some times you go outside 

To get inside 

If I could only hear you say 

That you are down but you're ok 

We should have said the things we felt 

Is it too late 

Park the car and hit the trail 

The air feels sharp 

On our skin 

We'll see the snow as it is melting 

Spring must be on 

Her way again 

We didn't see her coming for us 

I guess that's mother nature's way 

Sometimes you go outside 

To get inside 

If I could only hear you say 

That you are down but you're ok 

We should have said the things we felt 

Is it too late 

Trapped beneath the wall of snow 

You're only ten 

Feet away 

Silence has a way of speaking 

Only now 

Do we understand 

If I could only hear you say 

That you are down but you're ok 

We should have said the things we felt 

Is it too late
