Each one of us has a mountain that we must one day climb
and a heavy load to carry as we lose all sense of time.
How high that mountain seems to be as we start on the ground,
but not until you reach the top can happiness be found
Your loved ones and your friends would climb your mountain if they could
to ease the weary steps for you, but that would do no good.
You have to do it on your own, and that's the hardest part,
the first steps won't be easy, but at least you've made a start.
Now you're on your mountain, but you cannot see the top,
you think you'll never make it and might decide to stop,
but isn't that the easy way, and where would that leave you?
Right back where you started from not knowing what to do.
You've got to keep on going, taking one step at a time.
You think it's raining on your life and the sun will never shine,
but the sun is on that mountain, waiting for you at the top,
it wants to warm you inside out, that's why you mustn't stop.
Just believe me when I tell you that with every step you take,
your load gets somehow lighter, and the dawn begins to break.
The things you thought impossible will be easy you will find,
that happiness and mountains are just a state of mind.
So keep on climbing up your mountain, it isn't very high,
and very soon you'll reach the top and see a clear blue sky.
A golden sun will welcome you once your journey's done,
and you can stand with flag in hand and tell yourself "I've won!"
