Keeper of the Mountain
(Al Strehli)
I remember you a-tellin me dont clutch your rose
Dont mourn the sunset and I suppose
If I hear the river moanin its just the way Im feelin
The rivers not complaining , oh no oh no no no
And the very next day we woke before the dawn
We found our way by the ramblin river
And we had no dream we just lived one
I the keeper of the mountain, you the morning flower, uh huh uh huh huh huh
(Chorus)
There was no reason to go and I never claimed to know
And these (and these), these aint teardrops (these aint teardrops)
That aint the river (aint the river), just a-moanin (just a-moanin)
The rivers not complainin, oh no oh no no no
When I spoke big words you just let them fly away
Blue paper birds on a summers day
And I took you by the hand, knew that you would understand
I the keeper of the mountain, you the morning flower, uh huh uh huh huh huh
(Chorus)
