Tiger Mountain Lyrics
And I once knew a person
who could understand the way
the wind blew
And I tried to learn the language
but its as subtle as the mist
when the sun’s down
he’s up in the clouds now
he is drawing up the back
of each day
and no amount of crying out
could bring him down
he’s at a cross between
and everyone would ask me
why I hadn’t spoken a word
in so long
the secret to a language
that is spoken from the soul
is its silence
all across the mountain
they went searching for my ghost
but I was hiding
and no amount of shouting out
could bring them down
without my body
mother can’t you hear me?
I’ve been blowing through the wind
this whole time
and no amount of crying out
could bring me down
because I am an animal
and no amount of crying out
could bring me down
because I am an animal
who could understand the way
the wind blew
but its as subtle as the mist
when the sun’s down
he is drawing up the back
of each day
could bring him down
he’s at a cross between
why I hadn’t spoken a word
in so long
that is spoken from the soul
is its silence
they went searching for my ghost
but I was hiding
could bring them down
without my body
I’ve been blowing through the wind
this whole time
could bring me down
because I am an animal
could bring me down
because I am an animal

lyrics from the cd:
I once knew a person who could understand the way the wind blew
I tried to learn the language but it's as subtle as the mist when the sun is down
he is up in the clouds now he is drawing up the back of each day
No amount of crying now could bring him down he is at a cross between
everyone would ask me why i hadn't spoke a word in so long
the secret to a language that is spoken by the soul is its silence
all across the mountain they went searching for my ghost but I was hiding
No amount of shouting out could bring them down without my body
Mother can't you hear me I've been blowing through the wind this whole time.
No amount of crying now could bring me down I am an animal.
