Natalie Merchant - Crazy man Michael Lyrics Within the fire And out ALONG the sea Crazy man Michael WENT walking He met with a raven With eyes black as coal And shortly they GREW TO talking “your future, your future I will tell UNTO you Your future You often have asked me Your true love will die By your own right hand And crazy man Michael Will cursed be” Michael he ranted And Michael he raved And he beat at the four winds With his fists-o He laughed and he cried He shouted and he swore For his mad mind Entrapped him with a fist-hold “you speak with an evil You speak with a hate You speak for the devil That haunts me For is she not the fairest In all the broad land? Your sorcerer’s words Are to taunt me” He took out his dagger Of FIRE AND OF steel And he struck down the raven Through the heart-o The bird fluttered long And the sky it did spin And this cold earth did Wander ‘round startled Oh where is the raven That I struck down dead And here did lye On the ground-o? I see my true love With a wound so red Where her lover’s heart It did pound-o Crazy man Michael He wanders ALONE And he talks TO The night and the day-o But his eyes they are sane And his speech is plain But he longs to be far away-o Michael he whistles The simplest of tunes As he asks of the wild WOODS Their pardon But his true love has flown Into every flower grown And he must be keeper Of the garden |
