Heaven calling in the distance
So I packed my things and ran
Far away from all the trouble
I had caused with my two hands

Alone we traveled armed
with nothing but a shadow
We fled, far away

Hold your horses now
(Sleep until the sun goes down)
Through the woods we ran
(Deep into the mountain sound)
Hold your horses now
(Sleep until the sun goes down)
Through the woods we ran

Some had scars and some had scratches
It made me wonder about their past
And as I looked around
I began to notice
That we were nothing like the rest

Hold your horses now
(Sleep until the sun goes down)
Through the woods we ran
(Deep into the mountain sound)
Hold your horses now
(Sleep until the sun goes down)
Through the woods we ran

Whoa-oh-oh-oh-OH
We sleep until the sun goes down
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh
We sleep until the sun goes down

Hold your horses now
(Sleep until the sun goes down)
Through the woods we ran
(Deep into the mountain sound)
Hold your horses now
(Sleep until the sun goes down)
Through the woods we ran

La la la, whoa-oh-oh-oh-OH
La la la, we sleep until the sun goes down
La la la, whoa-oh, whoa-oh
La la la, we sleep until the sun goes

    My Interpretation:One, I hope they correct the title real soon.
    Anyway I don't know if I'm correct and I can be very wrong. However, to me is that each of the people have a had a past that eventually made them realize they were lonely and wanted something better for themselves. Then they ran into each other in a crowded place and noticed each other from afar, because they "were nothing like the rest." They fell in love and they're growing old with each other; however, they're trying to take it slow so they can enjoy every moment with each other. I think this leads into Little Talks honestly.

    In easier words, I think it is the journey they had to find each other and the journey they had to be with each other.

    General Comment:I really like this song. Their whole album is pretty great. And yeah the title is Mountain Sound, not Mountain Song.
