The Mountain King Part I & Part II

Lyrics for The Mountain King Part I & Part II

The Mountain King unfolded knees Leaned forward in his wrath The silver river heartland Being estimated lost of deerstalkers cap and bow - no signs were to be seen - Thunder clouds and lightning spear To the present deemed And shouting to his mentor to observe the gates he Locked he crossed the narrow oaken bridge - to organize the flock - Mountain sungate locked and safe And still the priestess smiles She walks the halls of Avalon - counts the moving tiles The brown man sits in shadows cold - watching as she moves - Immortal in experience and gunshot in her moods Unaware still of the change That morning sun will bring She baits the temple panther from without - the sacred ring - Aurora parts When the brazen head sails softly through the dawn Valley peace accepts the message Silently as is the merry dancers Had united cloud – mist –shell – stone – sea – space And the unknown And the vortex line loses time and fades – the joy of movement – the joy of movement – the joy of movement ... The people crying out for love he shouts into the wind The sky replies retorts and cracks The light remaining dimmed Humanity is but the crust of life as we are told Yet still exists beneath it all a fire red and bold The Mountain King unfolded knees Leaned forward in his wrath The silver river heartland Being estimated lost of deerstalkers cap and bow - no signs were to be seen - Thunder clouds and lightning spear To the present deemed And shouting to his mentor to observe the gates he Locked he crossed the narrow oaken bridge - to organize the flock - Mountain King Aaah Mountain King Aaah Mountain King Aaah (Musik: Michael Hofmann Text: Nicholas Woodland)
