mountain
TUNA DE TIERRA Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Laying down myself next to old trees
Waiting for the grass scent to reach me
All thoughts down for now, until I sleep
Leaving for a place far from here

Twisted skies, desert dried lands
Is the moon-light enough tonight
Close to me, have a sit and find God
Down in one I drink my wine and fill again

There's a mountain in your sight
Dawn is taking long more time
Falling memories on its sides
There's a mountain in your sight

Twisted skies, desert dried lands
Is the moon-light enough tonight
Close to me, have a sit and find God
Down in one I drink my wine and fill again

There's a mountain in your sight
Dawn is taking long more time




Falling memories on its sides
There's a mountain in your sight

Overall Meaning

In "Mountain" by TUNA DE TIERRA, the lyrics evoke a sense of tranquility and reflection in a natural setting. The singer metaphorically places themselves in nature, particularly beside old trees and amidst the scent of grass. These surroundings allow them to momentarily let go of their thoughts and concerns, entering a state of repose until sleep takes over. This act symbolizes a temporary escape or desire to detach from the present reality and venture towards a distant place.


The song alludes to an ethereal landscape, described as twisted skies and desert dried lands. The mention of moonlight suggests a subtle, soft illumination. The singer invites someone to join them, encouraging them to sit and find solace in the ambience, potentially seeking a spiritual connection or personal revelation. As the singer drinks their wine consecutively, there is an implication of both indulgence and a continuous quest for fulfillment and contentment.


The recurring line, "There's a mountain in your sight, dawn is taking long more time," adds layers of meaning to the song. The mountain symbolizes an obstacle or challenge that is persistently within view but yet to be conquered or overcome. The mention of the slow arrival of dawn implies a prolonged period of waiting or anticipation, perhaps indicating a struggle or journey towards a new beginning. The falling memories on the mountain's sides evoke a sense of past experiences or emotions that have shaped the singer's perspective.


Overall, "Mountain" conveys a desire to escape the stresses of daily life, find solace in nature, and confront personal or external challenges with a sense of resilience and determination.

Wild to me that this video only has 2725 views and I'm probably a fat stack of those. I'll be visiting less often now; I have purchased this wonderful album and added it to my collection. Thanks for pointing them out to me, even if most of your listeners didn't stop in to check this one out.
