Chalice Borealis Lyrics

Carole King

Chalice Borealis, lighting up the night
No wonderland for Alice, she don't have the right
Chalice Borealis, how does your garden glow?
Molly, don't work in Dallas but the river has to go

Oh, whatcha gonna do
When time runs out on you?
Run down, ghost town
Barren pastures all around

How you gonna explain it to your grandkids?
Where did the mountain go?
How you gonna tell them you sold it?

Where did the mountain go?

Didn't turn out quite the way you wanted
How were you to know?
Boom town broke down, what a let down
Where did the mountain go?

Chalice Borealis, will you ever learn?
Your mother bears you no malice
But she will have her turn

Chalice Borealis, lighting up the sky
No wonderland for Alice
She's just passin' by, passin' by
