Down Where The Sage Winds Blow
from Johnny Minstrel Hosted by Johnny Minstrel
Down Where The Sage Winds Blow Words and Music by Pravinand Maharaj You took a long drink from the cup of truth Squeezed fresh from your favourite fruit Picked ripe in the misty woods Down where the sage winds blow People live and people die You made a point of staying alive Can’t always see it with the naked eye All you got to show Easy smiled the face you met Who knew what’s beneath the flesh Laying low behind its breath The things you never saw It’s a rat race out there I hear you say A leaky roof for a rainy day Nothing more could make her stay You knew she had to go You can’t freeze ice on a burning flame You can’t be called by another’s name Can’t build a wall without a frame On which to hang the door Easy smiled the face you met Who knew what’s beneath the flesh Laying low behind its breath The things you never saw Night falls and shadows play Beneath a mocking moon You can’t help thinking the mark of Cain Was but a lover’s wound You took a long drink from the cup of truth Nocturne birdsongs play like flutes From the tree of the forbidden root Down where the sage winds blow Where the boughs of promise stood Down where the sage winds blow
