Down to the Valley by RavenoftheBlack Status: Public One day in the old world, the sky opened up, And the sweetest of all wines poured into my cup. I knew that my life would be lonesome and hard, But I felt the call of the wild Jakkard. So I left that city that I'd known so long, It felt much too right to have ever been wrong, I knew it would never again be the same, As I sought my fortune to better my name. Down to the Valley, where wild things roam, Down to the Valley, where I'll make my home, Down to the Valley, the place of the dead, Down to the Valley, where I'll lay my head. The way, it was hard, and the path, it was long, But my arms and my back and my heart all were strong, There were nights when I wondered how I would survive, But still when I got here, I was safe and alive. I built me a home from what I saw around, I fought for a life with the death in that ground, I worked without rest till my fingers were weak, And I'll keep on goin' to find what I seek. Down to the Valley, where wild things roam, Down to the Valley, where I make my home, Down to the Valley, the place of the dead, Down to the Valley, where I'll lay my head. Now I've been here so long I've forgotten my past, My days seem so short and my night's comin' fast, The streams of my mem'ries, they turn and they wind, As I try to remember those I left behind. I left them so quickly, now I curse my haste, Only to come to this forsaken waste, I've seen things that make sure my nightmare's won't cease, But next time my eyes close, I'll drift off to peace. Down to the Valley, where wild things roam, Down to the Valley, where I made my home, Down to the Valley, the place of the dead, Down to the Valley, where I lay my head. |
