Don't give me love, don't give me faith Wisdom nor pride, give innocence instead Don't give me love, I've had my share Beauty nor rest, give me truth instead A crow flew to me, kept its distance Such a proud creation I saw its soul, envied its pride But needed nothing it had An owl came to me, old and wise Pierced right through my youth I learned its ways, envied its sense But needed nothing it had Don't give me love, don't give me faith Wisdom nor pride, give innocence instead Don't give me love, I've had my share Beauty nor rest, give me truth instead A dove came to me, had no fear It rested on my arm I touched its calm, envied its love But needed nothing it had A swan of white, she came to me The lake mirrored her beauty sweet I kissed her neck, adored her grace But needed nothing she could give Gar tuht river Ger te rheged Gar tuht river Ger te rheged Gar tuht river Ger te rheged Gar tuht river Ger te rheged Gar tuht river Ger te rheged Gar tuht river Ger te rheged Don't give me love, don't give me faith Wisdom nor pride, give innocence instead Don't give me love, I've had my share Beauty nor rest, give me truth instead Don't give me love, don't give me faith Wisdom nor pride, give innocence instead Don't give me love, I've had my share Beauty nor rest, give me truth instead Don't give me love, don't give me faith Wisdom nor pride, give innocence instead Don't give me love, I've had my share Beauty nor rest, give me truth instead.

Ain't I got a fortune buried so deep In a lifetime of memory and the love I keep Turning within me while the sake of my name Pours forth the only fortune I've gained And calls me onward Into the sun Onward Into the sun Just a bird with a broken wing, longing to fly They've stretched every highway this poor boy could drive At home with the grounded I found a way Across the plains and o'er the mountains, and back again And calls me onward Into the sun Onward Into the sun Ain't I got a fortune in nearing my end When I think of my family and all of my friends But the highway has ended, my keys handed in I've mended my broken wing, my soul it begins To call me onward And calls me onward Into the sun Onward Into the sun

It's a churchyard auction, a sight to see, Where the eyes are big, and the odds are lean. The pockets all are empty, the chances all are gone, But there's a free bet yet on a house of stone, A house of stone. Now some may sing sounds of hallelujah And dream about a mansion of gold, But to each be true and to each be known. My dreams all are resting on a house of stone, A house of stone. Say that devil's a sly one with many kind friends. His riches are boundless, they know no no end. Down in the valley, the shadow's grown, But in the light of Calvary sits a house of stone, A house of stone.

Silence is golden some may say, some may say Well I say silence is an aimless time to kill It's a restless feeling pounding on my brain both night and day And these old wheels of mine spin louder as it builds Yes the sky would surely fall if my dear eardrum did fail To beat a single time, in time or out Some may make it out alright and some may have never known But these old wheels spin far too loud, far too loud For I love to hear a from the morning bird choir And the sounds of coffee boiling on the pot How I love to hear I love you in a dry morning tone And just assume that if I can't these wheels would stop Yes happy is the day I lay my poor head down With neither trial nor trouble to compete With the chirp of summer crickets nor a tree frog's croak And these old wheels slow down enough so that I may sleep Silence is golden some may say, some may say I say silence is an aimless time to kill It's a restless feeling pounding on my brain both night and day And these old wheels of mine spin louder as it builds

Every little thing you do Is a small reminder, now all I see Is you up on the mountain peak Fallin' down on me Lookin' out over All of Shenandoah The rocks below could never understand Little darling All they stole from me Every little thought of you Is a small reminder of my regrets If only you'd known true happiness Maybe one less ghost would be Just a lost kid Roaming these hills of Rockbridge County But round and round we go Mountain high and valley low And you know I'll never lose These old Jump Mountain blues Round and round we go Mountain high and valley low Round and round we go Mountain high and valley low (No, I'll never lose) Round and round we go (See those old Jump Mountains) Mountain high and valley low No, I'll never lose
