Serpent of Dreams - 2013-03-08 - Hot Tuna Flowers today bloomin' by the pathway Linin' the edge of tomorrow's grave Bright shinin' way, livin' in the shadows Tryin' to be the master of tomorrow's slave Down in the mine, circled 'round a diamond Serpent of your expectations sleeps a nervous dream Circled so fine like a velvet palace Whiles away the passing hours, not being what he seems Then he creeps into the night speeding up like fire flight How he moves into the forest floor Send away the pace of time, leave behind the lonely mine And the diamond silent on the floor We cannot stay by the crystal mountain The serpent of dreams has left his shadow lair The diamond remains brilliant in its cavern No one to see and no one left to care The serpent's friends have come and gone Down the hills, they're movin' on Through the lakes and forests and the dale They will find tomorrow's rise Brings them all the bluest skies Frees the lonesome banshee and his wail Flowers today bloomin' by the pathway Linin' the edge of tomorrow's grave Bright shinin' way, livin' in the shadows Tryin' to be the master of tomorrow's slave Tryin' to be the master of tomorrow's slave
