Yellow velvet mountain come to rescue me
Give me golden eyes to help me see
You were once there behind the scene
Playing on the golden strings for free
Echo rue, echo through
When I thought I'd made it to the mountain top
Looked above and saw it wasn't so
It's okay I'll stay here for a night or two
Though violet skies are violent on my sight
With the wolves I sleep tonight
They warn and hold me tight
They know maybe isn't love
All I try to do, leads me back to you
And now it's not enough
In my hair the shining combs of tortoise shell
From my ear I hang a crescent moon
I could swear an oath to never give you up
We could have found a mountain of our own
Echo rue, echo through
