I've been walkin' in my sleep
Countin' troubles 'stead of countin' sheep
Where the years went, I can't say
I just turned around and they've gone away
And I've been siftin' through the layers
Of dusty books and faded papers
That tell a story I used to know
And it was one that happened so long ago
CHORUS 1:
And it's gone away in yesterday
Now I find myself on a mountainside
Where the rivers change direction
Across the Great Divide
Now I heard the owl callin'
Softly as the night was fallin'
With a question, and I replied
But he's gone across the borderline
CHORUS 2:
He's gone away in yesterday
Now I find myself on a mountainside
Where the rivers change direction
Across the Great Divide
Countin' troubles 'stead of countin' sheep
Where the years went, I can't say
I just turned around and they've gone away
And I've been siftin' through the layers
Of dusty books and faded papers
That tell a story I used to know
And it was one that happened so long ago
CHORUS 1:
And it's gone away in yesterday
Now I find myself on a mountainside
Where the rivers change direction
Across the Great Divide
Now I heard the owl callin'
Softly as the night was fallin'
With a question, and I replied
But he's gone across the borderline
CHORUS 2:
He's gone away in yesterday
Now I find myself on a mountainside
Where the rivers change direction
Across the Great Divide
