Black Mountain Mist Lyrics

Listen
To the silence
Of the breaking of my heart
From a lowly vale
To the rolling hills
You and I
Lie worlds apart
Time is catching my breath
As love bleeds slowly to death
Black mountain mist
Take me back again
Black mountain mist
Come carry me home

And sleep
Is stirring dreams
Of innocence and yesterday
When the sun shone bright
And high in the sky
And we lived in hope
Of come what may
Forever with laughter we cried
And the truth is never could we have lied
Black mountain mist
Take me back again
Black mountain mist
Come carry me home

And when the rain comes
To clear away the mist
Feel its caress
Feel its embrace
Feel its wasting kiss
Black mountain mist
Take me back again
Black mountain mist
Come carry me home
Black mountain mist
Come carry me carry me home
Carry me carry me home

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
