Gay Cavalier Lyrics & Chords By Richie Havens

The forest got furry the desert grew eyes
the mountains got runny and the lakes turned to skies
a harvest of pumpinks grew sequins for ears
and I sighted for my sanity... Gay Cavalier
A torrent of roses not tossed by a tear
what Nature disposes man makes disappear
one moment's sincerity smoothly sincere
might bring back my sanity... Gay Cavalier
If you wanna know
Je' sto cuntanno ancora 'a rrobba mia
and I don't know
se 'a vita è 'na ciofeca o è grazie 'e Dio
The terrible simmetry tinkles like glass
the future at Liberty is freed from the past
the mountains and moments merge with the here
and we're back with our sanity... Gay Cavalier
The window is open, ajar is the door
no more of this groping we've reached the far shore
the land that we searched for is nearly than near
and we're here with our sanity... Gay Cavalier
if you wanna know
pe' te nun saccio niente
quacche vota so' cuntento
me manca l'aria pe' respira'
if you wanna know
pe' te nun saccio niente
quacche vota so' cuntento
me manca l'aria pe' respira'
