Upward Over The Mountain

by Iron & Wine
on The Creek Drank The Cradle

Lyrics

Mother don't worry, I killed the last snake that lived in the creek bed
Mother don't worry, I've got some money I saved for the weekend
Mother remember being so stern with that girl who was with me?
Mother remember the blink of an eye when I breathed through your body?

This song is so cute!
this song is perfect
Love.
my gosh, what a beautiful song!
Also, Upward Over the Mountain is the most perfect song ever written, in any genre, in the history of the world, including everything Mozart, Bach, et al. ever wrote.
It is not possible for any good person to listen to Upward Over the Mountain without crying. Sam Beam is greatness.
Wow, Glad that there are other comments on here, I agree completely with you all. As a mother of a young son, it makes me smile, and dream wistfully about our future.
gorgeous
this song is wonderful on so many levels. Some people say today's music sucks. I don't believe that. Radio only plays the crappy music. At least it does where I live. You'll never hear this song on the radio and that's the crime
I just love this song, in all it's loving simplicity. If I listen too closely it overwhelms me.
simple but powerful. its good to hear music that gives you hope in the strength of great lyrics and storytelling .

Why no lyrics?
amazing!
outstanding
Sam, you make some great music...
This song always makes me tear up. It captures that sting of the moment a parent and child realize the child has gown up and things will never be the same.
Takes me back to the early 70's...sitti n g on the floor of an old farm house listening to music.

strong medicine.
I always think of my son, the world traveler, when I hear this song.
