Lyrics

Phantom Mountain

At the top of

Phantom Mountain

I saw the turquoise

Brilliant burning sea

The sweat on my shoulders

The silvery haze

Swords of lightning

Hawks and Gulf Stream

Made me crazy, crazy

I could not tell the truth

I could not tell the truth

From the mirage, from the mirage

Yellow butterfly

On the rocky path below

Fluttering lifeless

In the shimmering glow

Of the Phantom Mountain

Took her heartache

Took her beautiful face

To a distant place

I could not tell the truth

I could not tell the truth

From the mirage, from the mirage

I could not tell the truth

I could not tell the truth

From the mirage, from the mirage
