Verse 2
Like mercury gliding
A silver teardrop that falls
And I CAN'T HOLD ON
Through my fingers she's gone
At the foot of the mountain
Such a long way to climb
How will I ever get up there -
Though I know I must try

Baby, baby, baby won't you let me ride
Take me off on your sail boat ride
Come on now angels, are on your side
But she slips away - oh, and never stays
