I’m gonna build a mountain, from a little hill
I’m gonna build a mountain, least I hope I will
I’m gonna build a mountain, I’m gonna build it high
I don’t know how I’m gonna do it, only know I’m gonna try

I’m gonna build a daydream, from a little hope
I’m gonna push the daydream, up that mountain slope
I’m gonna build a daydream, woah, I’m gonna see it through
Gonna build a mountain and a daydream
Gonna make ’em both come true

I’m gonna build a heaven, as a will someday
And the Lord sends Ga-bri-el to take me away
Woah, I wanna fine young son, to take my place
I’ll leave my son in my heaven on earth
With the good Lord’s grace

I’m gonna build a mountain, from a little hill
I’m gonna build a mountain, least I hope I will
I’m gonna build a mountain, yeah, gonna see it through
Gonna build a mountain and a daydream
Gonna make ’em both come true

I’m gonna build a daydream, from a little hope
I’m gonna push the daydream, up that mountain slope
I’m gonna build a daydream, woah, I’m gonna see it through
Gonna build a mountain and a daydream
Gonna make ’em both come true

I wanna build a heaven, as a will someday
And the Lord sends Ga-bri-el to take me away
I wanna fine young son, to take my place
I’ll leave my son in my heaven on earth
With the good Lord’s grace
I wanna fine young son, yeah, to take my place
I’ll leave my son in my heaven on earth
With the good Lord’s grace
Yea-eah
