Illuminate the human race, that's what I used to say
till I was saved by a lil girl, who showed me her way
She gave me fortune, nine golden threads
Till death do us part
I keep her with me as I do roam
Locked inside my heart
Salvation Mountain was the place
The setting sun came alive
I left her portrait inside her mouth
To bless the fortune inside
The road seems endless, no end in sight
And I can hear her weep
She needs my hands to wipe her eyes
Hold her in her sleep
You can run boy, you can hide
but don't you leave her side
She needs a lover, yeah she needs a man
not just a thorn in her pride???
You can run boy, you can hide
but don't you leave her side
She needs a lover, yeah she needs a man
not just a thorn in her pride
