The Best Poem Of The Works of Stevie Nicks - The Poet

Landslide

I took my love, I took it down
Climbed a mountain and I turned around
And I saw my reflection in the snow covered hills
'Till the landslide brought me down

Oh, mirror in the sky
What is love
Can the child within my heart rise above
Can I sail through the changing ocean tides
Can I handle the seasons of my life
Mmmm mmm mmm mmm

Well, I've been 'fraid of changing
'Cause I've built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Even children get older
And I'm getting older too

Well, I've been 'fraid of changing
'Cause I've built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Even children get older
And I'm gettin' older too
Oh I'm gettin' older too

Ahh, take my love, take it down
Ahh, climb a mountain and turned around
And if you see my reflection in the snow covered hills
Well the landslide'll bring it down

And if you see my reflection in the snow covered hills
Well the landslide'll bring it down
Oh the landslide'll bring it down
