The Tallest Man On Earth Album

have you ever seen the far side
of a mountain swallow the sky
as you travel through the valley
and as your speedin still far behind
through the valley where lovers climb

have you ever seen the locust
lean his wings right after the blade
like ascendin of a dark cloud
in the sunlight to end the day
to kill the sunlight, to end the day

cause it will follow the rain

have you ever seen the quiet
indecision of a man
when it's standing by the fire
with an eager friend in his hand
will he ever quite understand

that he will follow the rain
I said oh my friend
it will follow the rain

have you ever seen your baby
getting caught by the lonesome wind
and the whistling round the corners
telling you they have let her in
separation can now begin

Yes, it will follow now the rain.
I said oh my friend.
it will follow the rain
I said oh my friend
it will follow the rain

have you ever seen the far side
of a mountain swallow the sky, oh
through the valley as your speeding
through the valley still far behind

through the valley where lovers climb
where the children will blink and sigh
they have caught a lightning strike
in the jar just to watch it die
in the valley where lovers climb
cause it will follow the rain

I said oh my friend
it will follow the rain

Well it's the season of thunder
And the season of rain
All the little angels are growing wings of pain

And I see no point in asking
There's no point of return
When I steal those rings I know I'll have to burn

He said you bring me down, oh child
He said you bring me down, oh child

And I will fly through the lightning
When the thunder will strike
All tomorrow's parties will dance before my eyes

I will scream like an eagle
When i fly above your house
Just to bring salvation to peasants and their wives

He said you bring me down, oh child
He said you bring me down, ohhhh child
I ain't gonna walk the line

Well I see Jesus and Judas
Making love now of course
And all the roman emperors hanging up their horse

And I see no point in landing
I see no need to learn
Cause from the day we're lifted we know we'll have to burn

He said you bring me down, oh child
He said you bring me down, oh child
I ain't gonna walk the line

I said please don't shoot me down
I said please don't shoot me down ohhhhh
I said please don't shoot me down
I said please don't shoot me down ohh
I ain't gonna walk the line

I feel the arrows and bullets
They are combing my hair
And all my feathers falling so slowly from the air

And from the speed of my body
Earth will pile up my bones
From my little skull oh just a little whisper comes

Ohhh you bring me down, oh child
He said you bring me down oh child
I ain't gonna walk the line

Well I give you all my rain
I give you all my sweet horizons
And another sense of _____

I have to say
It's just a way
To steal tomorrow

Hell I'm guilty of the crime
But like a bird above the Alcatraz
I'm whiter than your gown

I have to say
It's just a way
To steal tomorrow

I will dance and sway
While you dream away
Bring your curtain down
Then I'll burn this town
It's just a way to steal tomorrow

Well I tell you that I'm down
And now believin' by the tickets
Your messiah is in town

I have to say
It's just a way
To steal tomorrow

While we're riding on our plane
Well I have bought a special backpack
Just to run away from shame

I'll have to say
It's just a way
To steal tomorrow

I will dance and sway
While you dream away
Bring your curtain down
Then I'll burn this town
It's just a way to steal tomorrow

Hell I'm guilty of the crime
But like a bird above the Alcatraz
I'm whiter than your gown

I have to say
It's just a way
To steal tomorrow

Well, I could hear it, the river was crying
And I could see you through the fog
And I could reach into magnetic fields, all
To steal a hammer and a gun
For heavy engine bound
Yes, I will find a new
I'm going over the hills now
I'm going into the blue

And I will tell it to the mighty wind that
I have traded once again
And I will listen to the backwards music
With a propeller in my hand
For every child in tears
I will throw down a hand
I'm going over the hills now
I'm going over as planned

And every morning I will push
And bring the sun above our head
And with a smiling face I do upon it
I will consider it as sin
That every lie I tell
Will arrive like it's true
I'm going over the hills now
I'm going into the blue

Oh, honey!

And I will hijack every morning railroad
Perhaps I'll die upon that train
Perhaps I'll turn the wheel to slide it over
Into the long and narrow trade
And I would bounce the moon
On the earth if I could
I'm going over the hills now
I'm going over now for good

I've set the rain
to be cold and hard
I've set the sun to
be bright and sharp
To wake you up
from your hollow dream
I'll shake your bed
with a thunder strike
from my hand

Lets come all steal
we will lie and cheat
and turn around
all their limit signs
and redirect this
this great old boring road
into the depths
of a lions mouth

Just to see
if theres something we believe

Our dog dog will drink
Till the oceans gone
And he will pull
Till the collar breaks
And everyone
That he will run down
Will see his limbs
as they grow and bleed

But we'l see
if theres something they believe

Lets say goodbye
to the weather girl
just let her die
when we killed her sound
and when the screen
is all dark and charged
the limousine
will be parked outside
in the street
for us to throw into the stream
