Unearthing old treasures that were buried for centuries
Freed from a bed of clay and lime
On a glittering beach that was blinded with mica
We bathed our hearts in the warm sunshine
We bathed our hearts in the warm sunshine
We ran rapids through the Mad River Valley
Watched over by the Titans that loomed in the east
Nothing could stop us, not even those mountains
We were drunk on each other and running free
We were drunk on each other and running free
As I gazed upon your face in the firelight
That cold August night as we sang by the shore
I knew that our love could conquer the heavens
And I'd keep you right by my side evermore
I'd keep you right by my side evermore
Then a stranger appeared with bannock and whiskey
And stories to tell from beyond the scree
And during the night while I slept off the drink
Well he picked up and stole you my sweet Rosa-Lee
He picked up and stole you my sweet Rosa-Lee
Now the angels are singing a song for my baby
The angels are singing a song for my love
While the blood washes free from my hands in the river
A requiem fills the heavens above
A requiem fills the heavens above
I followed them up that great Rocky Mountain
I followed them through the bramble and trees
With only the sun and the moon to guide me
And the scent of her skin and her hair on the breeze
The scent of her skin and her hair on the breeze
For seven long days, and seven long nights
Alone on the mountain, alone to the core
I stumbled upon them in the grey morning light
And I left them in their embrace evermore
I left them in their embrace evermore
Now the angels are singing a song for my baby
The angels are singing a song for my love
While the blood washes free from my hands in the river
A requiem fills the heavens above
A requiem fills the heavens above
