4.20.15 lyrics I came across a mountain that waved as I passed by It called my name a'huntin and blindly I went by It echoed through the forest It wandered through my mind When day broke through I knew I knew I knew I knew I fell into a river And somehow I stayed dry It wrapped its arms around me And I put up a fight It pushed me out the water It probably saved my life When I came to I knew I knew I knew I knew There was a little village Was filled with those I knew They all came out to greet me And I just ran on through You stayed when there was trouble You stayed when I was rude When there were few I knew I knew I knew I knew art by cleverfigstudios https://www.etsy.com/listing/169242655/mountain-sketch-drawing-print-black-ande
