Serpent Of Dreams Lyrics - Singles - 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
