I see the sun's been sinking I've got darkness on my mind I sit and guard my treasure losing track of time I see the clouds a coming I'm ready for the storm I've got a mountain full of gold but I've been told that gold won't keep me warm {Musical Interlude} I sit here on this mountain, a thrush whispers in my ears spoke of things bound to come in my dying years I looked into the silver pond I looked into the past My day arrived my time was here it had come at last {Musical Interlude} The battle of five armies no less there was no more The stars shown bright on Durin's day the moon lit up the door Ten thousand swords of dwarven make ten thousand more had come Ten thousand leagues by eagles flight the heartstone all but won {Musical Interlude} And in that stoney fortress the moon shown bright and true A chest of gold from ogre's old a pint of dwarven brew

Pale Rider > 04:56
Whoah pale rider Theres a calm beneath the storm Leave your foot prints in the sand Come with me you will understand pale rider Whoah pale rider..... {Chorus} Pale rider wont you come on in and tell me Life is meant for you and me Whoah pale rider Leave your mark upon this world Let your ship take you somewhere Somewhere you can understand pale rider Whoah pale rider..... {Chorus} Whoah pale rider Theres a calm beneath the storm Leave your foot prints in the sand Come with me you will understand pale rider Whoah pale rider..... {Chorus} Life is meant for you and me Life is meant for you and me Life is meant for you and me

I met a girl down by the riverside She looked at me and i could see No other gal could ever love me quite like she But she led me here to die Woah and I've got nothing left to lose Woah take a walk inside these shoes Woah and I've had something on my mind Woah she has run me out of time Woah {CHORUS} She still lies in my dreams everynight Sings sweet verses of the blues She calls me over to the pale moon light And i've got nothing left to lose Now flies the songbird to the riverbed Her notes do echo in my ear And now the spring has come i wish that you were here But that's not the way it is Woah and I've got something left to lose Woah won't you bring me back my shoes Woah and I've got things that I should do Woah instead of waiting 'round for you Woah {CHORUS} Woah and I've got something left to say Woah you didn't have to run away Woah and now I've blown another fuse Woah and I got nothing left to lose Woah {CHORUS} I've got nothing left to lose Please don't sing me no more blues I can't think of what to do If my life is without you... ...without you

I used to listen to the willow Down by her roots i would sleep It's clear to me that times are changing Words of wisdom falling like her leaves Nights grow old the singing stops I remember her voice calling But the river there I'd take my rest I thought she knew that I was falling Come the winter will she face her final test Years grow old branches drop Nights grow old the singing stops {CHORUS} From the thawing ground (From the thawing ground) There springs new found life (There springs new found life) Oh the Willow's song (Oh the Willow's song) Rises forth again (Rises forth again) Calling through the night solo {CHORUS} Have you heard about the children of the willow I hear it now the song remains the same Walk down by the river listen gently A song or just the sound of rain Years grow old branches drop Nights grow old the singing stops

Possum Creek 02:44
I was born 15 minutes from Possum Creek We used to go down there to take a leak But Mamma didn't know That the water would flow And carry me far away Me and my Grandpa used to go fishing everyday We caught a big ol' catfish, 20 lbs it did way! But Grandpa didn't know That the water would flow And carry me far away Now the water was warm but it also was yeller So don't be swimmin' in that creek li'l feller But Mamma didn't know That the water would flow And carry me far away Me and my sister used to play in my room She'd piss me off so I'd wack her with a broom But sister didn't know That the water would flow And carry me far away Now I was born 15 minutes from Possum Creek We used to go down there to take a leak But Mamma didn't know That the water would flow And carry me far away And Carry me far away
