Down in the forest, deep in the hollow Where wild mushrooms grow Like summertime snow on needles of pine Where the sun never shines I've loved you Under the mountain deep in a grotto Where rivers begin Unknowing the sin in caverns of lime Where the sun never shines I've loved you Then you pull your shade up And you dance to your records And I call you flower 'Cause I don't know your name And you don't know your power On a grey little island In the shadow of giants Breathing poisonous air Our secret affair unfolds in my mind Where the sun never shines I've loved you Then my back is straighter And my arms are stronger And my veins are flowing You ask me where I'm from I tell you where we're going High on a meadow out in the daylight Where wild flowers lay like children at play On clover and time Where the sun never shines I will love you
