LYRICS
\nIf the mountain is high
\nHave the will to try
\nYes, I am
\nI am certain to try
\n… try to touch the sky
\nYes, I can
\nI think that I am
\nI know that I can
\nGet by
\nGet by the foul-aired sky
\nGet by the “need” to buy
\nGet by the urge to cry
\nWill the will to try<\/p>\n
If the mountain is high
\nHave the will to try
\nYes, I am
\nI am certain to try
\n… try to touch the sky
\nYes, I can
\nI think that I am
\nI know that I can
\nGet by
\nGet by the “boil n fry”
\nGet by the fashion guy
\nGet by the urge to cry
\nWill the will to try<\/p>\n
If the mountain is high
\nHave the will to try
\nYes, I am
\nI am certain to try
\n… try to touch the sky
\nYes, I can
\nI think that I am
\nI know that I can
\nGet by
\nGet by the tide so high
\nGet by the threat to die
\nGet by the urge to cry
\nWill the will to try<\/p>\n
