Please excuse me, Francis and TC. I should have stated that
Grammys were awarded in 1967 on that particular music mentioned.

Here is a small taste of what the song abstractly expresses, from my personal artistic perspective:
The man is in a wooded, lush garden, thinking deeply to himself about the one he loves. He is in this garden often, because it's the place where he has been meeting with his lady. As he sits and thinks about her, he longs for the time that they can join again. In his meditational state, he happens to look down and notice a tiny creature peacefully and happily inching its way across the grass. As it travels along, its little back rises into a hump, and then goes back down, repeatedly. Curiously amused by it, he realizes that the hump it makes appears as a tiny mountain.
Closely observing this creature and how it moves along, he recognizes that it's representative of a person's life, such as his own, as he reaches toward and achieves his daily and life-long goals. In order for the creature, and thus him, to reach those chosen and desirable destinations, mountains must be made in order to get there. And it's up to him as to whether or not those mountains are climbed and conquered with happiness and satisfaction.
At the same time, he sees his sweetheart as a mountain as well, although a lovely one... a wonderful, magnificent, yet powerful challenge to accept and reach for in ultimate, unified ecstasy. He desires and secretly determines to climb to the summit and live life to the fullest at the top, while viewing and experiencing the beautiful places of the world with her, from the highest, most enjoyable perspective.
In his marveling, he remains focused the rise and fall of the creature's "mountains"... and also how his loved one leaves and returns. Finally able to stand it no longer, his heart and voice calls out her name in swirling sweet agony of desire...
(There is more, but I'll only write hints a little at a time.)

First there is a mountain then there is no mountain.

Thank you poetseductress this is indeed an honour and also a great responsibility.
The saying "Be carefull what you wish for, it might come true" weighs heavilly on my concionce.
1. I wish for a happy and relaxing holiday for Lord Elphus.
2. I wish for a little less power for those that have it and a little more power for those that dont. (is that one wish or two?)
3.

Something for my wife and family.
Dadpad - I don't thing his lordship will be very happy when he comes back to the manor.
I have a feeling Penperthy will be getting the boot, and the insurance adjusters will have to spend a few days sorting it all out.
I doubt the entire truth will ever be known.
