Cloud Shadow on the Mountain



Lyrics

I was asleep in a hammock
I was dreaming that I was a web
I was a dream-catcher hanging in the window of a minivan
Parked by the water's edge

I'd say that I was all alone
I'd say that I was all alone
I'd say that I was all alone

But I will never be born as a scorpion

And you're gonna be Ok come morning
Find your legs and find your horns
Everybody gotta be reborn
but I'll never be born as a scorpion
Everybody gotta be reborn
but I'll never be born as a scorpion

And you're gonna be Ok come morning
Find your legs and find your horns
'Cause you're not just another pair of boat shoes
walking away from the harbor

Cloud shadow on the mountain
Cloud shadow on the plains
Cloud shadow making island nation on the fabric of this terrain

You gotta jump, jump over the island
like a gazelle
You gotta jump over the the island
like a new long legged gazelle

But you will never be born as a scorpion
But you will never be born as a scorpion

Just another pair of boat shoes
walking away from the harbor
Just another pair of boat shoes
walking away from the harbor

And you're gonna be Ok come morning
Find your legs and find your horns
Everybody gotta be reborn
but you will never be born as a scorpion

Everybody gotta, gotta be reborn
But you will never be born as a scorpion
