Katmandu - Cat Stevens

I sit beside the dark

Beneath the mire

Cold grey dusty day

The morning lake

Drinks up the sky

Katmandu I’ll soon be seeing you

And your strange bewildering time

Will hold me down

Chop me some broken wood

We’ll start a fire

White warm light the dawn

And help me see

Old satan’s tree

Katmandu I’ll soon be touching you

And your strange bewildering time

Will hold me down

Pass me my hat and coat

Lock up the cabin

Slow night treat me right

Until I go

Be nice to know

Katmandu I’ll soon be seeing you

And your strange bewildering time

Will keep me home
