I Am The Mercury

I cannot go anymore to the marshes

Where the gatekeeper smiles at the poisons he's made

For my heart belongs to the one on the mountain

Where doves build their nests in the sun-ripened glade

For i am the mercury, the light of the morning

Looking for shelter in this thunder and this rain

And you, like some windmill, weave light where it's storming

And love, like a potion for the hunger and the pain

Let it rain...

I have been bought, I have been sold in the city

I've dined with the demons, and I drank of their fear

But you, you have known, and waited in silence

Come, cradle my heart in a homecoming tear

And we are the mercury, the light of the morning

Looking for shelter in this thunder and this rain

And he, like some windmill, weaves light where's it's storming

His love like a potion for the hunger and the pain

Let it rain

Let it rain let it rain on the mountain

Let it rain oh, let it rain, let it rain on the mountain

Heeeeeyaaaaaah

Let it rain, come let it rain, let it rain on the mountain

Let it rain woah, let it rain, let it rain on the mountain

Heeeeeyaaaaaah

Let it rain come let it rain oh, let it rain on the mountain

Let it rain oh, let it rain, let it rain on the mountain....
