Beth Orton - I Never Asked To Be Your Mountain Lyrics






I never asked to be your mountain
I never asked to fly
Remember when you came to me
And told me of his lies
You didn't understand my love
You don't know why I try
And the rain was falling on that day
And damn the reason why

I've been gone too long
Now I'm home to stay
Please don't leave me
Again this way
I'm sailing all my sins
And I'm climbing all my fears
You can't swim my waters
If I can't walk your lands

    Oh God, that voice. Thank you, Ms. Orton.

  2. S.... B....

    Awesome Tim Buckley cover

  3. m.... ....

    Sounds like good old Big Beat!

  4. a.... ....

    The last track from the Chemical Brothers album that doesn't exist.

  5. P.... C....

    damn ok this is a cover I never knew I needed

  6. B.... D....

    Sounds like someone is removing her fingernails. Anyone else? Let the hate mail begin. Ala Phoebe "Smelly Cat".

  7. O.... ....

    Awesome

  8. J.... P....

    Is that a female Richard Shannon Hoon?

  9. A.... F....

    It takes amazing confidence to cover Tim Buckley, and to do it well is even more impressive. Great version!!

  10. T.... T....

    OMFG! This is so beautiful!

    S.... F....

    Richard B And me

  13. C.... I....

    This version sounds like Jane's Addiction if Perry Ferrell was a woman.

    C.... I....

    Nice observations. Reminds me a lot of Perry's solo work, cos he flirted a lot with synths and tech sounds

  14. J.... S....

    hermoso.

  15. A.... C....

    look like "surrender" sound

    A.... C....

    exactly

    A.... C....

    Rather like "Dig Your Own Hole", in reference to "Where Do I Begin", with a touch of "Surrender"

    A.... C....

    Veo toques de the sunshine underground

  16. R.... E....

    Fingers crossed this could be an amazing chemical brothers album. And slightly more 90’s than their last couple of album

  17. d.... z....

    Hermosa canción , cover de tim buckley, me llegó hasta el alma y representa el momento que estoy viviendo, the chemical brothers el soundtrack de mi vida.

  18. A.... Q....

    Will this be on Eddy's and Tommy's new lp?

    A.... Q....

    Spike Spiegel think so. EBW 12. Not sure when though. But can’t wait
