I Never Asked To Be Your Mountain (Live at Greetings from Tim Buckley, St. Ann's (исполнитель: Jeff Buckley)
I never asked to be your mountain I never asked to fly Remember when you came to me And told me of his lies You didn't understand my love You don't know why i try And the rain was falling on that day And [bad word] the reason why The flying pisces sails for time And tells me of my child Wrapped in bitter tales and heartache He begs for just a smile Oh he never asked to be her mountain He never asked to fly And through his eye [bad word] his love And tells her not to cry She says, "your scoundrel father flies With a dancer called a queen And with her stolen cards he plays And laughs, but never wins" Oh the child dreams to be his hands In the counting of the rain But only barren [bad word] he feels For her milk will never drain As I die I can't remember Where i saw the rain: Could it be that her laughter Drove me down again? Charming dancer will you stop, Stop and talk to me? Is there someone else you feel In your dreams? you will, you see: In midnight gazes I've found you far from me If you lead me on Please leave me down Oh flying flying [bad word] and flutter by my door You can drink my lies If first you read my eyes Each one is titled "i'm drowning back to you" And I can't swim your waters And you can't walk my lands I'm sailing all my sins And i'm climbing all my fears And soon now i'll fly My love is the flower That lies among the graves My love is the thousand souls and saints And all the insane madmen Tell me I'm not as love behaves Maybe not in lands of men That spread my ash along the ways I wanna feel the titles to me Like a woman [bad word] said I wanna feel the fish swim through me Let the water tag my skin Wrapped around the pebble That you choose to warm your hand Just as I dream everyday As I pray you'll understand I never asked to be your mountain I never asked to fly Remember when you came to me And told me of his lies You didn't understand my love You don't know why i try And the rain was falling on that day [bad word] the reason why [bad word] the reason why Sweet lover, will [bad word] back And love me for a while? Please take my hand And leave your fears behind I've been gone too long Now i'm home to stay Don't leave me again this way Don't leave me again this way Don't leave me again this way [bad word] home.
