Earth Blankets White Lyrics - Singles - Blind Iris

Driving up a canyon 

Rise above the fog 

Inversions got the city 

As dirty as a dog 

Signal reads danger 

Don't suck in when you breathe 

I've been almost lost and drifting 

In a swirling milky sea 

People like to tell me 

The valley is too cold 

Others praise the winter 

They utilize the snow 

Up at Beaver Mountain 

Tree's brush against the sky 

I first learned to keep my balance 

Long enough fly 

I list it as a reason 

I stayed in a little town 

It's up there at the top 

Where I start working my way down 

Woke up early this morning 

And I looked outside 

The Earth was undercovers 

Her Blankets white 

Now I stand below the hillside 

With a ticket to ascend 

Above the glorious terrain before me 

Now I'm Ready to begin 

My gradual climb to freedom 

On the way I'm looking for 

The perfect powder 

I know where no one's been before 

People like to tell me 

There's a bigger place to go 

I say "Better fill your wallet 

and enjoy the fashion show" 

I'll be up at Beaver mountain 

Where the essence is to ride 

Surfing near the clouds 

Where the snow I know divine 

I list it as a reason 

I stayed in a tired town 

It's up there a the top 

Where I start working my way down 

A thousand trails I've found here 

A lot more then you'd think 

The best things in this place are hidden 

If you go too slow you'll sink 

Every way leads down here 

Yeah, always on the move 

Unless, of course, hidden in the tree's 

Lining up to groove 

I feel closer to the season 

On rolling hills up high 

There's no stopping now I know 

I'm free and I'm alive 

Twisting, turning, cold and deep 

Nothing more to do 

Then frolic down the mountain 

Always trying to out do myself 

My goal to live each day 

The best that I know how 

I'm coming down the mountain 

Feeling good 

I'm in the now
