Bob Dylan - Cross The Green Mountain Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • I cross the Green Mountain
  • I sit by the stream
  • Heaven blazing in my head I
  • I dreamt a monsterous dream
  • Something came up
  • Out of the sea
  • Swept through the land of
  • The rich and the free
  • I look into the eyes
  • of my merciful friend
  • And then I ask myself
  • Is this the end?
  • Memories linger
  • Sad yet sweet
  • And I think of the souls in heaven who will be
  • Alters are burning
  • The flames far and wide
  • the fool has crossed over
  • from the other side
  • They tip their caps
  • from the top of the hill
  • You can feel them come
  • All brave blood do spill
  • Along the dim
  • Atlantic line
  • The rapper's land
  • lasts for miles behind
  • the lights coming foreward
  • and the streets are broad
  • all must yield
  • To the avenging God
  • The world is old
  • The world is great
  • Lessons of life
  • Can't be learned in a day
  • I watch and I wait
  • And I listen while I stand
  • To the music that comes
  • from a far better land
  • Close the eyes
  • of our Captain
  • Peace may he know
  • His long night is done
  • The great leader is laid low
  • He was ready to fall
  • He was quick to defend
  • Killed outright he was
  • by his own men
  • It's the last day's last hour
  • of the last happy year
  • I feel that the unknown
  • The world is so dear
  • Pride will vanish
  • And glory will rot
  • But virtue lives
  • and cannot be forgot
  • The bells
  • of evening have rung
  • there's blasphemy
  • on the end of the tongue
  • Let them say that I walked
  • in fair nature's light
  • And that I was loyal
  • to truth and to right
  • Serve God and meet your full
  • Look upward beyond
  • Beyond the darkness that masks
  • the surprises of dawn
  • In the deep green grasses
  • and the blood stained woods
  • They never dreamed of surrendering
  • They fell where they stood
  • Stars fell over Alabama
  • And I saw each star
  • You're walking in dreams
  • Whoever you are
  • Chilled as the skies
  • Keen as the frost
  • And the ground's froze hard
  • And the morning is lost
  • A letter to mother
  • came today
  • Gunshot wound to the breast
  • is what it did say
  • But he'll be better soon
  • He's in a hospital bed
  • But he'll never be better
  • He's already dead
  • I'm ten miles outside the city
  • And I'm lifted away
  • In an ancient light
  • That is not of day
  • They were calm they were gloomed
  • We knew them all too well
  • We loved eachother more than
  • we ever dared to tell
