I went up on a mountain and I come back down I went up on a mountain and I come x2 There's nothing new but a girl, I say I do There's nothing new but a girl I went out on a river and I rolled around I went out on a river and I rolled I went out on a river and I almost drowned I went out on a river and I rolled There's nothing new but a girl, I say I do There's nothing new but a girl
2.
Oh my darling, my babe All the loving that I gave With you in the morning and at the nights beginning And I kiss you on your lips With my hand upon your hip While you are warm beside me Where I like you to be I had a dream I was flying Up in the clouds, very high And one thought was coming clear All I want's already here

Going South 03:02
Go wandering off on a path that looks soft The Leaves are all green on that grounds quite a scene And the air it is warm as a tropical storm And I'll wait in the woods for that old time again Sitting out here and I'm twirling my hair A feeling of dread slowly filling my head And an old records on but its sounding all wrong As a breeze starts to blow through my open window As I go to get up a mountain erupts And debris starts to fall on this island so small Ashes and stone, I'm a man all alone As the ground starts to glow, all the ash turns to snow So out in the cold I do go very bold And without many clothes my skin's getting frozen I'm moving fast 'till I see you at last And as clear as the day I am in it all the way
4.
Well you need to see the things that you long to see And you've found that in this town there's ways that you long to be My baby's long and tall, she's got everything But she's got to go away Well it seems that I'm doing fine Cuz I've known the troubles that are mine And now I find they don't weigh down on me And we're rolling along, yeah we're rolling along She calls me out, she calls me home and I've got a drum, yes I've got a drum and I'm going to beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it..............

We were standing under the moon and the stars And a blue light blanketed all we could see The water below, was sparkling And a breeze was blowing warm through the trees I looked down on that night scene and my mind went clean And I stared into the glittering sea As the moon hung still and bright My eyes were filled with an electric light Oh, and I saw it in that light

I was out on the road Travelling with no abode Waking without the sun In the dark our car did run But oh, I was envisioning you Oh I was envisioning you Now I'm away from home Lonely but not alone Driving up high and slow Through the tall mountains and snow But oh, I was envisioning you Oh I was envisioning you

Drifting 02:06
9.
Through another person's eyes I was watching a past scene I saw the day was full of charms At the time I hadn't seen I saw people dancing there Some were old and some were young And I had been unaware Of their smiling in the sun Oh my heavy little head With its thinking big and small Saw the thoughts I'd had that day Didn't matter, not at all
