Kyrie -Mr. Mister

The wind blows hard against this mountainside
Across the sea into my soul
It reaches into where I cannot hide
Setting my feet upon the road

My heart is old it holds my memories
My body burns a gemlike flame
Somewhere between the soul and soft machine
Is where I find myself again

Kyrie Eleison
Down the road that I must travel
Kyrie Eleison
Through the darkness of the night
Kyrie Eleison
Where I'm going will you follow
Kyrie Eleison
On a highway in the light

When I was young I thought of growing old
Of what my life would mean to me
Would I have followed down my chosen road
Or only wished what I could be

Kyrie Eleison
Down the road that I must travel
Kyrie Eleison
Through the darkness of the night
Kyrie Eleison
Where I'm going will you follow
Kyrie Eleison
On a highway in the light

Kyrie Eleison
Down the road that I must travel
Kyrie Eleison
Through the darkness of the night
Kyrie Eleison
Where I'm going will you follow
Kyrie Eleison
On a highway in the light

(2 more choruses omitted by me)

Kyrie Eleison
Down the road that I must travel

Note: If you don't know "Kyrie Eleison" means "Lord have mercy" in Greek.

Isn't it in latin? No, I suppose not. The latin words for Lord and Mercy I should recognize easily.

No, I'm sure it's Greek. I checked to make sure. And it didn't sound like Latin in the first place anyways.

No. But I always assumed it was latin, just because it's Catholic.

The Highland Sage said...

O. Good point, I thought it was Latin too, until I thought about it.
