[Verse 1]
Solemn faced
The village settles down
Undetected by the stars
And the hangman plays the mandolin
Before he goes to sleep
And the last thing on his mind
Is the wild eyed boy imprisoned
'Neath the covered wooden shaft
Folds the rope into it bag
Blows his pipe of smolders
Blankets smoke into the room
And the day will end for some
As the night begins for one
[Verse 2]
Staring through the message
In his eyes
Lies a solitary son
From the mountain called Freecloud
Where the eagle dare not fly
And the patience in his sigh
Gives no indication
For the townsmen to decide
So the village, dreadful yawns
Pronouncing gross diversion
As the label for the dog
[Verse 3]
Oh, it's the madness in his eyes
As he breaks the night to cry
It's really me
Really you
Really me
It's so hard for us to really be
Really you
And really me
You'll lose me
Though I'm always really free
[Verse 4]
And the mountain moved it's eyes
To the world of realize
Where the snow had saved a place
For the wild-eyed boy from Freecloud
[Verse 5]
And the village dreadful cried
As the rope began to rise
For the smile stayed on the face
Of the wild-eyed boy from Freecloud
[Verse 6]
And the woman once proud
Clutched the heart of the crowd
As the boulders smashed down from the mountains hand
And the magic in the stare
Of the wild-eyed boy said
"Stop, Freecloud"
They won't think to cut me down
Oh
[Verse 7]
But the cottages fell
Like a playing card hell
And the tears on the face of the wise boy
Came trembling down
To the rumbling ground
And the missionary mystic of peace love
Stumbled back to cry
Among the clouds
Kicking back the pebbles
From the Freecloud mountain track
