Mountain Town
In mid-July
She's laying on his arm
With broken boots and bony knees
All strewn across the grass
And the darkest nights you've ever seen
They hide the past and add to sleep
And the darkest nights you've ever seen
In purple clouds with cows and sheep
And so the silent earth
They saw the silent earth
And they felt it breathe
Her lover was a quiet man
He waited all the night
With her asleep upon his lap
So she would be all right
And though the town was cold and wet
There on the bed a wooden bed
With him awake and reading that
He saw the silent earth
He saw the silent earth
And he felt it breathe
He saw the silent earth
What can my lover do?
He is leaving
For what can I say to you
If I'm screaming
But be kind now
But be kind now
Thank you for watching!
