Phantom Mountain

At the top of Phantom Mountain I saw the turquoise, brilliant burning sea The sweat on my shoulders, the silvery haze Swords of lightning, hawks and Gulf Stream made me crazy, crazy I could not tell the truth, I could not tell the truth From the mirage, from the mirage Yellow butterfly on the rocky path below Fluttering lifeless in the shimmering glow Of the Phantom Mountain, took her heartache Took her beautiful face, to a distant place I could not tell the truth, I could not tell the truth From the mirage, from the mirage From the mirage, from the mirage I could not tell the truth, I could not tell the truth I could not tell the truth, I could not tell the truth From the mirage, from the mirage From the mirage, from the mirage
