[Verse 1]
Black mountain
Cool river runs
And I could be anyone
I counted the dark pine trees
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10
And I could be any one of them

[Chorus]
Oh, tonight I see it through
With no thought of self-ridicule
Was it overlong, so overdue?
No thought of me in my thought of you
Black mountain, cool river runs

[Interlude]

[Chorus]
Oh, tonight I see it through
With no thought of self-ridicule
Was it overlong, so overdue?
No thought of me in my thought of you
Black mountain, cool river runs
To the sea, and I could be no one but me
It’s true, you could be no one but you
