The Tallest Man On Earth Thousand Ways lyrics

oh i have lived for ages
i'm a thousand turns of tides
i'm a thousand wakes of springtime and a thousand infant cries
oh a thousand infant cries

i've got sixteen hundred tigers now, tied to silver stings
when they pull out in the pass you're sure the mighty heart will sing
oh the mighty heart will sing

but i'll always be blamed for the sun going down with us all
but i'm the light in the middle every man's fall

i bend my arrows now in circles and i shoot around the hill
if i don't get you in the morning by the evening i sure will
by the evening oh i sure will

cause i'm the fire on the mountain you have lit up in your dream

but also water in the fountain you could send yourself on me
you could send myself on me

cause i'll always be blamed for the sun going down with us all
but i'm the light in the middle every man's fall

and though i never meant to say these words but yes you oughta know
that the dark in what i've always been it will not ever go
oh it will not ever go

and for so i lived a thousand years a thousand turns of tide
just a thousand leaves of autumn and a thousand wasted tries
oh a thousand
it's just a thousand wasted tries
