Keeper of the Mountain

I remember you
A-telling me
Don't clutch a rose
Don't mourn the sunset
And I suppose if I hear
The river moaning
It's just the way I'm feeling,
The river's not complaining, oh no, oh no oh no
And the very next day
We woke before the dawn
And we foud the way
By the rambling river
And we had no dream
We just lived one
I the keeper of the Mountain
you the morning flower, uh-huh, uh-huh uh-huh
There was no reason to go
And I never claimed to know
And these(and these)
these ain't teardrops(these tear)
That ain't the river(ain't the ri-iver)
Just a-moaning,
The river's not complainin, oh no, oh no oh no.
When I spoke big words,
You just let them fly away,
Like paper birds
On a summer's day
And I took you by the hand,
Knew that you would understand,
I the keeper of the Mountain,
You the mornin flower, uh-huh, uh-huh uh-huh.
There was no reason to go
And I never claimed to know
And these(and these)
These ain't teardrops(the ain't teardrops)
The river's not complaining, oh no, oh no oh no.
