"Black Mountain Rain" lyrics
Up the road and way up high
In the sky, the clouds are gray, hung low
The fog has set to crying
The air's a thin chilled sweat, it keeps you awake and waiting
Standing on the street, you can see the same
Black mountain rain
It was long ago she showed herself
In the spring, her flowers grew
And the only thing was missing was hidden from your view
'Cause in the spring, ain't no mystery in the sun
But now she's telling secrets of her fame
Black mountain rain
Show me your slick red serpent's tongue
And I'll share you with my sight
Give me your cheating's lover charm
And I'll probably fucking bite
She's got my love wrapped up and stowed away
With a nonchalance unequaled
Locked me out, buried the key
I know this breeze that's blessing me
This evening's just a memory of a face, recalls the same
Black mountain rain
In the sky, the clouds are gray, hung low
The fog has set to crying
The air's a thin chilled sweat, it keeps you awake and waiting
Standing on the street, you can see the same
Black mountain rain
It was long ago she showed herself
In the spring, her flowers grew
And the only thing was missing was hidden from your view
'Cause in the spring, ain't no mystery in the sun
But now she's telling secrets of her fame
Black mountain rain
Show me your slick red serpent's tongue
And I'll share you with my sight
Give me your cheating's lover charm
And I'll probably fucking bite
She's got my love wrapped up and stowed away
With a nonchalance unequaled
Locked me out, buried the key
I know this breeze that's blessing me
This evening's just a memory of a face, recalls the same
Black mountain rain
