I Am The Mercury by Jimmie Spheeris Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 1971

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....
