when the sky is falling and the air is burning just want to close it off and blot out the sun goodbye autumn wind say hello to spring breeze swimming over the river but water gets deeper i m feeling a stream that is dragging me in i m circling the whirlpool going round and down give me a blind man s eye and i ll count all the stars in the sky drink the hangman s wine to cross the river of life our powers are weakening sinking through that hole all rumblin and tumblin while downstream but i know a path yes i know the way give me a blind man s eye and i ll count all the stars in the sky drink the hangman s wine to cross the river of life give me a blind man s eye and i ll count all the stars in the sky drink the hangman s wine to cross the river of life
