Man on the Silver Mountain Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm a wheel, I'm a wheel
I can roll, I can feel
And you can't stop me turning
'Cause I'm the sun, I'm the sun
I can move, I can run
But you'll never stop me burning
[Chorus]
Come down with fire
Lift my spirit higher
Someone's screaming my name
Come and make me holy again
I'm the man on the silver mountain
I'm the man on the silver mountain
[Verse 2]
I'm the day, I'm the day
I can show you the way
And look, I'm right beside you
I'm the night, I'm the night
I'm the dark and the light
With eyes that see inside you
[Chorus]
Come down with fire
Lift my spirit higher
Someone's screaming my name
Come and make me holy again
I'm the man on the silver mountain
I'm the man on the silver mountain
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
Come down with fire
And lift my spirit higher
Someone's screaming my name
Come and make me holy again
I'm the man on the silver mountain
I'm the man on the silver mountain
[Outro]
Well, I can help you, you know I can
I'm the man on the silver mountain
I'm the man on the silver mountain
Just look at me and listen
I'm the man, the man, give you my hand
I'm the man on the silver mountain
Comin' down with fire
And lift your spirit higher
I'm the man on the mountain
The man on the silver mountain
I'm the night, the light
The black and the white
The man on the silver mountain
I'm the man on the mountain...
Self Portrait Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Paint me your picture
And hang it on the wall
Color it darkly
The lines must start to crawl
[Pre-Chorus]
Down, down, down
Spin me around and around
Draw me away to the night from the day
Leave not a trace to be found
Down, down
[Chorus]
Nothing is real but the way that I feel
And I feel like going down
Down, down, down
Down, down, down, down, down
[Verse 2]
Paint me a picture
Of eyes that never see
With flashes of lightning
That burn for only me
[Pre-Chorus]
Hey hey hey
There's only the devil to pay
I'm ready to go
Pull me down from below
Give me a place I can lay
[Chorus]
Hey hey
Nothing is real but the way that I feel
I feel like going down
Down, down, down
Down, down, down, down
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
Hey hey
Nothing is real but the way that I feel
And I feel like going down
[Outro]
Down, down
Nothing is real but the way that I feel
And I feel like going down
Down, down, down
Down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down
Down
Catch the Rainbow Lyrics
[Verse]
When evening falls, she'll run to me
Like whispered dreams, your eyes can't see
Soft and warm, she'll touch my face
A bed of straw against the lace
[Chorus]
We believed we'd catch the rainbow
Ride the wind to the sun
Sail away on ships of wonder
But life's not a wheel, with chains made of steel
So bless me
Come the dawn, come the dawn
Come the dawn, come the dawn
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
We believed we'd catch the rainbow
Ride the wind to the sun
And sail away on ships of wonder
But life's not a wheel, with chains made of steel
So bless me, oh bless me, bless me
Come the dawn, come the dawn
Come the dawn, come the dawn
[Instrumental Outro]
Snake Charmer Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Old hollow eyes
Got no ties
Walking by the light of the moon
Hey shiny boots
With strings and flutes
Rising like a crazy balloon
[Chorus]
Close your door
He's on the loose
Umm, here he comes
No hope for you, ooh
Snake charmer, he'll haunt you
[Verse 2]
So, hey mystery man
What's your plan
I've got to tell the world
To beware you don't care
He'll hypnotize you
And tell you lies
He's hiding at the top of the stairs
[Chorus]
Close your door
He's on the move
I see him coming out
There's no hope for you, ooh
Snake charmer
Snake charmer
Get out
[Guitar solo]
[Verse 3]
Hey fancy face
Got no place
Living from a hole in the ground
Old sparkle eyes
He never cries
One step ahead of the hounds
[Chorus]
Close your door
He's on his way
He's coming out
Of the shadows now, now
No hope for you, ooh
Snake charmer
Snake charmer
Now listen to me, yeah
[Verse 4]
Hey hollow eyes
Got no ties
Oh shiny boots
Play your strings and flutes
Mystery man what's your plan
Fancy face, got no place
Snake charmer
He'll harm you
[Outro]
Oh sparkle eyes
Got no ties
Oh shiny boots
Close your door
He's on the loose
Snake charmer
My mystery man what's your plan
I've got to tell the world to beware
You don't care
Hypnotized
