I've stumbled on the side
of twelve misty mountains
I've walked and I've crawled
I've stepped in the middle
I've been out in front of a
There's been 10 ,000 miles
in the mouth of the graveyard
And it's a hard, it's a hard,
it's a hard, it's a hard,
with wild wolves all around it
Saw a highway of diamonds
with blood that kept dripping
with their hammers a -bleeding
I saw a white ladder all covered with water
I saw ten thousand talkers
whose tongues were all broken
I saw guns and sharp swords
in the hands of young children
It's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard,
it's a hard, it's a hard race
Heard the sound of a thunder,
that could drown the whole world
Heard one hundred drummers
Heard ten thousand whispering
I heard many people laugh
And heard the song of a poet
Heard the sound of a clown
Who did you meet, my blue -eyed sun?
Who did you meet, my darling young moon?
I met a young child beside a dead pony
I met a white man who walked a black dog
I met a young girl, she gave me a rainbow
I met one man who was wounded in love
But it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard,
it's a hard, it's a hard rain
Oh, what you do now, my blue -eyed son?
before the rain starts falling
of the deepest black forest
Where the people are many
and their hands are all empty
Where the pellets of poison
are flooding their waters
Where the home in the valley
meets the damp, dirty prison
Where the executioner's face
where souls are forgotten
Where black is the color,
And I'll tell it, think it, speak it,
Reflected from the mountains
But I'll know my song well
It's a heart, it's a heart, it's a heart
It's a hard, it's a hard way
