You're Gonna Need A Mountain Lyrics - Waving At The Astronauts - Lifeguards

You're gonna need an ocean 

of guile and pretense 

of holy smoke 

of spitfire and eye tricks 

but I love you too much 

to offer advices 

or feeble assistance 

to each new resistance 

this I won't 

you're gonna need a Gris-gris 

made from the teeth of lions 

shake impossible mountains 

from their canyon homes 

but I love you enough 

to hide your stuffed animals 

the ones that could bite 

clean through your pillow 

this I will 

I always will 

you're gonna need a safe haven 

but what do I know 

you thought you might have it 

but he wont kick it for living 

'cause your love is a crutch 

an interesting rush 

a volcano dancer 

a very blue maker 

this I know 

you think that I don't know 

you're gonna need a mountain (fountain?) 

cosmetic creep 

this side and that side 

I'm not feeling everything 

but love is so small 

whatever you grow 

and vow to the dusk 

using both hands 

this you must 

this you must 

I love you so much 

I'll give back your animals 

your maintains and oceans 

your castles in (and?) cream 

this I will 

this I will 

I always will 

you're gonna need a mountain 

or a new contact solution 

for another life of oversight 

or lose your choice in everything you know 

this you know 

this you know 

yeah 

yeah this you know 

oh this you know 

this you know 

this you know
