It was midnight on the mountain
|
It was stormy
|
It was cold inside the cave
|
I was hiding from the world and I was lonely
|
And afraid, and afraid
|
|
There was a thunder on the mountain
|
There was lighting from the angry skies above
|
Just as if the Lord was saying to the people
|
Where is love, where is love
|
|
From the mountain, from the mountain
|
He was asking "Where is love?
|
What has happened to my children?
|
Have they turned away from me?"
|
|
From the mountain, from the mountain
|
He was asking "Where is love?
|
Why is brother kill in brother?
|
That was never meant to be
|
You have poisoned ev'ry river ev'ry tree
|
I see a land of hunger
|
Where once the earth was green"
|
|
It was morning on the mountain
|
He said "Now the time had come for us to part,
|
You must go down from the mountain
|
Tell the people, they broke my heart"
|
You must go down from the mountain
|
Tell the people, they broke my heart
|
