Lyrics
I was lost out in the mountains And I had run out of provisions I had one drop left in my deerskin And I had come to my last decision Should I lie down? Oh, should I lie down? Or should I be laid down? I had set out in the first place From what I gathered from rumored hearsay I heard of treasure in a high cave On the northern slopes of the Coast range So I climbed up Oh, so I climbed up But I didn't know how to climb down So I wandered through the foliage I came across my own tracks and I became discouraged And then at long last, I found a cavern I crawled inside and I lit my lantern And it was all there Oh, it was all there Just like they told me it would be there I was lost out in the mountains I had no water and nothing to eat So I drank the soil from a golden chalice I gritted precious stones between my teeth And I regretted my lonesome palace I should have never listened to others' tales And all I had left was a priceless ballast To hold me down from the howling gale In my mouth, there burned a fire And I was dying of a long, long draught And then a voice whistled across the mouth of my cavern And it said to me, it said without a doubt Is you will settle You will settle by the water before this is over This is over This is over This is over This is over This is over All my life I've spent wasting time, wasting my time Just to forget again, but I don't mind, I don't mind Just take my medicine and I'll be fine, I will be fine I'll be fine
