The Incredible String Band - The Iron Stone lyrics

rate me

A long wind a weaving mind

Over all the land the wild flowers grow,

Echoing kind to kind

On that day when I found the iron stone

Heavy in my hand in the sloping rain

Ever the seas rolled on and o'er my heart

They roofed their slates of grey

The iron stone I found it on that day

The iron stone I brought it home

Heavy in my hand I brought it home

Black as the thoughts of doom

A man told me it came from the moon

Flying through time it flew

Upon the long beach where I found it

Dancing horses told their tale

Among the stones it called me

There my hand it knew

Seeing in the thickness of the thick black sight

Forests and centaurs and gods of the night

Never that sun shone on

Where high Atlantis raised her shores

How sang the dragons of the sea

Love paints the carts with suns for wheels

The jester's bauble, cap and bells

The brave, perhaps, Mustachio

Sir Primalform Magnifico

The dragon me with golden toes

And golden fire my flaming nose

And memories, memories

My cave was bright with sulky gems

That paled the stars like diadems

Silver lost and buried gold

Such was my home in days of old.
