"Black Mountain" lyrics

Isobel Campbell & Mark Lanegan Lyrics

"Black Mountain"

I met a man whom I'll never doubt
Flew into the sun, our bodies on fire
Betrothed to a mate, pray it is not so
Invoke father time, then he let her go

Lie true lie true lie true lie true
Lie true lie true lie true lie true
Lie true lie true lie true lie true
Lie true lie true lie true lie true

I know a dog much blacker than night
Who lives in a house where nothing is right
All sorrow and loving riches at bay
All watching a future, what shall there lay?

Lie true lie true lie true lie true
Lie true lie true lie true lie true
Lie true lie true lie true lie true
Lie true lie true lie true lie true

Some dream of coins or some beauty's find
But I want the truth while I serve my time
Most complex and pain, I'd share it with you
The moon looks bright, so come say I'll do

Lie true lie true lie true lie true
Lie true lie true lie true lie true
Lie true lie true lie true lie true
Lie true lie true lie true lie true
