On The Greek Side Of My Mind

(album: On The Greek Side Of My Mind - 1971)

At night
The forest doesn't sleep
And lo... a tree was taught to speak
There is a tree and there is an island
On the Greek side of my mind

On the Greek side of my mind
Storm uprooted the tree
And it lay dead on the sand
But in truth it did not die
Come with me
Come with me and have no fear
And to it's stories lend an ear
For the tree spoke about ways that walk
On the Greek side of my mind

It dreamed about goddess
Goddess dying on a star riding high
It roamed up the mountains beyond
When you may see
You may see people shall be as masters free
On the Greek side of my mind

I've drawn signs on the sand
And through the pebbles
A light was streaming
I do not know when she came the gleaming
Who lives within?
Devils that sleep sound below the seven seas?
A prisoner?
A man set free?
A part of you
Something, just something of me
Those may you find
Those may you find
On the Greek side of my mind

At night the forest doesn't sleep
And lo... a tree was taught to speak
There is a tree and there is an island
On the Greek side of my mind

Storm uprooted the tree
And it lay dead on the sand
But in truth it did not die
Come, come with me
Come with me and have no fear
And to it's stories lend an ear
For the tree spoke about ways that walk
On the Greek side of my mind

It dreamed about a goddess
Dying on a star riding high
It roamed up the mountains beyond
Where you may see
You may see people shall be the masters free
On the Greek side of my mind

I've drawn signs on the sand
And through the pebbles
A light was streaming
I do not know when she came the gleaming
Who lives within?
Devils that sleep sound
Below the seven seas?
A prisoner?
A man set free?
A part of you
Something, something of me
Those may you find
Those may you find
On the Greek side of my mind
