Tender Mountain Eyes

I, I have fire in my soul
Silver tears in my blood
Fallen from an eye of gold
But I will not come to rest
Until I feel your love again
Tender mountain eyes

I, I see mothers in a field
With their babies in their arms
And the sun is going down
But they do not seem afraid
They know something I don't know
Tender mountain eyes

I'll never leave you alone again
Without your tender mountain
Oh no, no
I'll never face the night again
Without your tender mountain
Oh no, you're
Tender as the flower
In the evening light
You can't fight alone
You're tender as the soldier
Who can't sleep at night
Wondering when he's going home

I, I may journey through the night
But I will return by dawn
With a gullstone in my hand
And the twilight will be long
And the twilight will be ours
Tender mountain eyes

I'll never leave you alone again
Without your tender mountain
Oh no, no
I'll never face the night again
Without your tender mountain
Oh no, no, oh no

For you, you are of a golden age
And it waits for your return
So don't turn yourself away
In the canyon of your sorrow
You will hear your golden name called
Oooh

I, I have fire in my soul
Silver tears in my blood
Fallen from an eye of gold
But I will not come to rest
Until I feel, until I feel your love again
Yes. Tender mountain
Tender mountain
Tender mountain eyes
