I wrote this originally as a track for the credit roll in a short horror film, Roachfar. It was not originally part of the album, but I thought I'd throw it in as a bonus track. It is written in the folk tradition of pining over the loss of love. This song is sung or shall I say yodelled in the afterlife from Adelaide's lover singing to her through the mountain breeze.
lyrics
Though I never may return
for you my heart will always burn
when you need shelter from the squall
I hope you hear my mountain call
Adelaide
Could you hear my mountain call
From the Rockies to Nepal
Hear him echo in the breeze
hear him whisper in the trees
Don't you worry don't you fear
I'm all around the mountain air
when you wanna cry and ball
Just listen for my mountain call
Don't you worry don't you fear
I'm all around the mountain air
When you need shelter from the squall
I hope you hear my mountain call
I cried your name a thousand times
I hope the wind recalls the lines
I'll be cryin in the blue
Hopin my message got to you
Adelaide
Though I never may return
for you my heart will always burn
when you need shelter from the squall
I hope you hear my mountain call
I cried your name a thousand times
I hope the wind recalls the lines
I'll be cryin in the blue
Hopin my message got to you
Adelaide
