Keeper of the Mountain Lyrics

(Al Strehli)

I remember you a-tellin' me don't clutch your rose
Don't mourn the sunset and I suppose
If I hear the river moanin' it's just the way I'm feelin'
The river's not complaining, oh no oh no no no

And the very next day we woke before the dawn
We found our way by the ramblin' river
And we had no dream we just lived one
I the keeper of the mountain, you the morning flower, uh huh uh huh huh huh

(Chorus)
There was no reason to go and I never claimed to know
And these (and these), these ain't teardrops (these ain't teardrops)
That ain't the river (ain't the river), just a-moanin' (just a-moanin')
The river's not complainin', oh no oh no no no

When I spoke big words you just let them fly away
Blue paper birds on a summer's day
And I took you by the hand, knew that you would understand
I the keeper of the mountain, you the morning flower, uh huh uh huh huh huh

(Chorus)
