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 youI′ve got some things I need to do

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 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 gotta do this on my own
I need to build myself a home

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 never go when I say leave
I'm headed to the mountains
Don′t wait up for me
