letra de misty mountain - james keelaghan

[verse 1]
up the misty mountain
wild flowers bind the ground
down by the rushing river
force will wear those boulders down
me, i’m underneath my covers
me, i’m trapped inside my brain
while up above the misty mountain
up above the rushing river
up above the bed of longing
the eagle takes the wind

[chorus]
the eagle takes the wind, my friend
you know the eagle takes the wind
it makes me think of this, my friend
where does the eagle live in me?

[instrumental]

[verse 2]
i go crawling through this city
i say the city will be my home
i say woman, you are half-way pretty
may you never be alone
be it scorn or be it favor
be it but a moment gone
but i stood before the mirror
like an open-ended cavern
like a breath held, inhaled, holding
and i barely knew my name
[chorus]
i barely knew my name, my friend
i barely knew my name
it makes me think of this, my friend
where do i live in me?

[instrumental]

[verse 3]
its a planet of resistance
and a whirling flame of choice
are you my comrades in persistence?
i swear they’ll know us by our voice
although we lay down in dusty caverns
we are ragged as a scar
and when we rest, our eyes stay open
we are always off to war

[chorus]
we’re always off to war, my friend
you know we’re always off to war
it makes me think of this, my friend
where can the quiet be?

[instrumental]
[verse 4]
is it underneath my covers?
or trapped inside my brain?
is it up above the misty mountain?
is it up above the rushing river?
is it up above the bed of longing?
where the eagle takes the wind
the eagle takes the wind
the eagle takes the wind
