lyrics

Don Quixote was a friend of mine

We rode the same horse drank the same wine

Chased the same rainbow’s end

But oh the world was so much younger then

Don Quixote was of another time
When men were men & laughed & cried
Before the carpetbaggers came
Before the banker ran the game


Take me to the river’s edge

I need to wash my hands at my mother’s breast

Then leave me here to make my bed

Believe I’ve run my time & I crave my rest

Don Quixote was as mad as the moon
But his heart was big & his aim was true
The more I listened the more I learned
About the hearts of men & the ways of the world

Take me to the river’s edge

Don Quixote chased windmills
In a world before love could kill
Before we walked before we ran
Before green fields reeked of man

Take me to the river’s edge
