- Songwriters: Laura Veirs
At the top of Phantom Mountain
I saw the turquoise, brilliant burning sea
The sweat on my shoulders, the silvery haze
Swords of lightning, hawks and Gulf Stream made me crazy, crazy
I could not tell the truth, I could not tell the truth
From the mirage, from the mirage
Yellow butterfly on the rocky path below
Fluttering lifeless in the shimmering glow
Of the Phantom Mountain, took her heartache
Took her beautiful face, to a distant place
I could not tell the truth, I could not tell the truth
From the mirage, from the mirage
From the mirage, from the mirage
I could not tell the truth, I could not tell the truth
I could not tell the truth, I could not tell the truth
From the mirage, from the mirage
From the mirage, from the mirage
In the Know
