Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The mountain calls me straight,
Back to you,
And though it may not appear,
To me it's pretty clear,
That you still,
Have feelings too,
As the leaves start to fall,
Sounding oh-so sweet,
Your mesmerising song,
Got me singing along,
Is this what happiness is,
Oh my heartbeat is fast,
Everytime that we dance,
Under the diamond sky,
And i feel your touch and it's just enough,
To know that this is real,
To know that this is real.
Hey-yeah,
Hey-yeah,
Hey-yeah,
The trees dig their roots,
Right in through your boots,
That you left behind the kitchen door,
Well, i can't explain how these feelings remain,
With me for so long
You gave me one chance,
Set me into a trance,
That i can't come back from,
My heart beats fast as we dance under the,
Night's diamond sky,
I feel your touch and it's just enough to know,
That this is real
Hey-yeah
Hey-yeah
Hey-yeah
Darkness falls over us,
I feel your touch on my skin,
Can't bare the thought of you,
Bare the thought of you being alone,
You're not alone,
You're not alone,
You're not alone,
You're not alone,
You're not alone,
You're not alone,
You're not alone,
Hey-yeah,
Hey-yeah,
Hey-yeah,
Hey-yeah,
Hey-yeah,
Hey-yeah.

As the darkness falls,
As night descends upon us,
The mountain calls me straight,
I am drawn straight towards you,
Back to you,
Returning to be with you,
And though it may not appear,
Despite how it may seem,
To me it's pretty clear,
I am certain,
That you still,
That you too,
Have feelings too,
Are also experiencing emotions,
As the leaves start to fall,
As the leaves begin to drop from the trees,
I hear the echo calling,
I am hearing a haunting sound,
Sounding oh-so sweet,
But it is a sound that is melodious,
Your mesmerising song,
You have a captivating way,
Got me singing along,
That makes me want to sing with you,
Is this what happiness is,
I am wondering if this is what true joy feels like,
Oh my heartbeat is fast,
My heart is racing,
Everytime that we dance,
When we move together,
Under the diamond sky,
Beneath the glittering stars,
And i feel your touch and it's just enough,
When you make contact with me, it is sufficient,
To know that this is real,
Confirming that this is reality,
The trees dig their roots,
The trees' roots extend deeply,
Right in through your boots,
Penetrating your footwear,
That you left behind the kitchen door,
That you unintentionally abandoned by the kitchen entrance,
Well, i can't explain how these feelings remain,
I cannot elucidate why these emotions persist,
With me for so long
Within me for an extended period of time
You gave me one chance,
You graciously granted me one opportunity,
Set me into a trance,
Caused me to be hypnotized,
That i can't come back from,
And I cannot recover from it,
My heart beats fast as we dance under the,
My heart rate quickens as we groove beneath the,
Night's diamond sky,
Evening's glistening sky,
I feel your touch and it's just enough to know,
When you make contact with me, it is merely adequate to comprehend,
That this is real
That this is legitimate
Darkness falls over us,
Dusk descends upon us,
I feel your touch on my skin,
I sense your touch on my flesh,
Can't bare the thought of you,
I cannot stand the idea of you,
Bare the thought of you being alone,
Or the thought of you being lonely,
You're not alone,
You are not isolated,
Hey-yeah,
Hey-yeah,
Hey-yeah,
Hey-yeah,
Hey-yeah,
Hey-yeah,
Hey-yeah,
Hey-yeah,
Hey-yeah,
Hey-yeah,
Hey-yeah,
Hey-yeah

VERSE 1
Though you're blinded by tears and consumed by your fears
And your daytime has turned to night
You may be unaware, but there's someone who cares
And He's leading you to the light
CHORUS
You're not alone
Never alone
VERSE 2
There are times when you feel that you're all by yourself
Like an island out on the sea
But that's the enemy's way of making you doubt
Cause God promised He'd never leave
BRIDGE
Hold on, stand tall
He won't leave you,
Won't let you fall
In your darkest hour
Just remember
Promised never to leave me
Promised never to leave me alone
Promised never to leave me
