IN THE KINGDOM
Performed by Hot Tuna on the The Phosphorescent Rat
By: Kaukonen
I feel your shimmering eyes into my soul
And your life is all around my time, now don't you know
Every time your sunrise drives my night away
It make my lifetime soar in circles, like the swallows wheeling in the day
Now our time can start to run. The hourglass has just begun
(2X)
Life was meant for having fun. As we were meant to be
I've been living blind in one eyed land.
Among those kings I thought were grand
Till time had opened up my eyes. And there I found to my surprise
That life without you was empty as a nest in winter lie
Break (4X) (7X) Ething (4X)
Strolling in the garden, sunshine of a California day
With you by my side, the tears we cried have dried and gone away
The darkness of the Northland, the wintertime has all begun to run
Through the deltas of a passing sorrow, now that you and I are really one
Now we're flying down the way, where all our hopes have time to stay
And we can marvel at the time, that floats us in its path
I've been living blind in one eyed land.
Among those kings I thought were grand
Till time had opened up my eyes. And there I found to my surprise
That life without you was empty as a nest in winters lie
