The Hermit of Misty Mountain |
I went to a Hermit of Misty Mountain who lives in a cave above |
And I asked this wise old man |
«Oh, Mr Hermit, what is a love???» |
He said, «Love is a boat that sails to heaven on a river that has no end… |
It’s a magic carpet to the Valley of Dreams… that’s a love my friend…» |
So I asked this Hermit of a Misty Mountain who lives where the cold winds blow |
«If I find this thing called love… oh, Mr Hermit, how will I know??? |
He said, «You'll see the Sun when it isn’t shining and the stars when they |
don’t glow… |
And you’ll hear songs when there ain’t no singing… |
That’s a-how you’ll know…» |
So I said to a Hermit of Misty Mountain before these things are thru |
«When I find this thing called love,. |
oh, Mr Hermit, what do I do? |
He said, «Treasure this love much more than gold and care for it tenderly… |
Or you’ll be a Hermit on a Misty Mountain |
A fool like me |
A fool like me |
Aaaw, you’ll be a fool like me |
A fool like me…» |
