Shining Mountain Lyrics

I went up on the mountain side
to see what i could see
to see what i could be
on the shining mountain

I watched the day go down in fire
and sink in the valley
and sink into the sea
drown in golden fire

Fireflies danced in the forest nightCockburn Bruce - Shining Mountain - http://motolyrics.com/cockburn-bruce/shining-mountain-lyrics.html
the trees began to sing
the crags began to sing
above the black forest

I went up on the mountain side
to know what i did know
to know whence i did know
on the crowning mountain

(chilliwack b.c. -- august 15, 1970
