Gypsy Kyss - Mary's Mountain lyrics

There was a place that I would climb to

With greener pastures and truer flowers

Fantastic daydreams I called Mary

(Mary gave me free passage)

Now I'm 100 miles off the mainland

Many miles of Keller's Point

100 miles out in the darkness

So far out can't get my feet on the ground

On a ship they call verity

Oh, the peace in anonymity

The curse of vocal obesity

And the supply of mental fatalities

Please take me back to Mary's Mountain

I must go back to Mary's Mountain

Leave me at the landing

Pour me on the shore

I'll swim in the new air of my childhood memories that are

reborn Memories, be now true

Spitting, turning, swirling ocean

Cursing Scylla and Charybdis

Fire! Fire! Serpent slayer

Neptune offer me free passage

Captain! Captain! The ship is oozing

Cracking, squirming in the water

Fire! Fire! Serpent slayer

Neptune offer me free passage

"Oh captain my captain!

Our fearfull trip is done

The ship has weathered every rack

The prize we sought is won
