And the hangman plays the mandolin before he goes to sleep
And the last thing on his mind
Is the wild eyed boy imprisoned
Neath the covered wooden shaft
Folds the rope Into its bag
Blows his pipe of smolders
Blankets smoke into the room
And the day will end for some
As the night begins for one
Staring through the message in his eyes
Lies a solitary son
From the mountain called freecloud
Where the eagle dare not fly
And the patience in his sigh
Gives no indication
For the townsmen to decide
So the village dreadful yawns
Pronouncing gross diversion
As the label for the dog
Oh its the madness in his eyes
As he breaks the night to cry
Its really me
Really you And really me
Its so hard for us to really be
Really you And really me
Youll lose me though Im always really free
And the mountain moved its eyes
To the world of realize
Where the snow had saved a place
For the wild eyed boy from freecloud
And the village dreadful cried As the rope began to rise
For the smile stayed on the face
Of the wild eyed boy from freecloud
And the women once proud Clutched the heart of the crowd As the boulders smashed down from the mountains hand
And the magic in the stare Of the wild eyed boy, said Stop, freecloud They wont think to cut me down
But the cottages fell Like a playing card hell And the tears on the face Of the wise boy
Came trembling down To the rumbling ground And the missionary mystic of peace/love
Stumbled to cry among the clouds
Kicking back the pebbles From the freecloud mountain track
