I was following the pack
All swallowed in their coats
With scarves of red tied 'round their throats
To keep their little heads
From fallin' in the snow
And I turned 'round and there you go
And, Michael, you would fall
And turn the white snow red as strawberries
In the summertime

Climbed on big boat and sailed away
Heard the waves and the water calling out for me
Going over yonder where the water is wide
Following the stars in the big night sky
Let the tall ships sail
As wild winds wail
If I ever I make it home
I’ll tell the tale

Come down from the mountain, you have been gone too long
The spring is upon us, follow my only song
Settle down with me by the fire of my yearning
You should come back home, back on your own now

My memory is not like the other one
Turn to strike my face
Always second place
Tell me again why is it I
Never can do anything right?
Complicated theories of life, sarcastically

All that's left for me to climb
To the heavens is the chasm of the night
And a matter of time, but I hear the rumble
As the tectonic plates start to shake
And I feel my blood pounding like the beat of a drum

Take time
Take time
Take time

Lady, running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left-hand man
I love you when you're singing that song
And I got a lump in my throat
'Cause you're gonna sing the words wrong

Three leagues down the soft side of where you left my
Gold rose crown, you broke down and left me with a
Chest hum, a black gun, and forty dollars
Chest hum, a black gun, and forty dollars
Three weeks down, I drowned myself in whiskey
Came back round, and drowned out and left me with a
Chest hum, a black gun, and forty dollars
Chest hum, a black gun, and forty dollars

I don't even know where to begin or how I should start these days
The green mountain south or
The Clay of the westerns
The Maryland meadows at midnight they do have a misty grace
Take a trip to blue bayou
Find Roy Orbison cryin'
A continent molded from glass or maybe a town I can taste
Dresses that glow on
Girls from Barcelona
I wanna discover the key and open the everywhere place
A mix of sky from Montana
Dipped in Florida-da
