Tears on Sky Mountain

Moonlight shinin' in the clearin' deep blue sky Tears on sky mountain are drawin' high Try to pile them all through the needle's eye Lead the rush of the ocean's tide By lamplight, I saw smoke that was curlin' around my anger It was made of white snow comin' from the maze's center Thought I loved a name that my angel was singin' Some spirit word on the dry hillside covetin' my vision Singing, "Sweet Summer Nights of Wine and Song" Horsemen's devil lurkin', but his sanctuary's gone And you would not sing to me, confession is foregone I'll wear the stones down under my feet My own flight, my pawn Misguided wish for a fire's song Chaos in the veil that we're walking upon My prayer is tired, but my rosary is long That's the effigy I'll hold 'til the shadow's gone Moonlight shinin' in the clearin' deep blue sky Tears on sky mountain are drawin' high Try to pile them all through the needle's eye Lead the rush of the ocean's tide
