The Old Couple (Clay's Song)

I met an old couple who lived high in the hills
High in the desert, few people visit them there
They gave me the magic to make my life complete
I knew I would stay, stay here, there wasn't anything I would do.

Some say she's evil, I don't believe it is true
Some say she's witchy, I don't believe it is so
Some say she's crazy, they don't know her like I do.

I knew I would stay, stay here, what could I do?
I knew I would stay, stay here, what could I do?
I knew I would stay, stay here, there wasn't anything I would do.

He has all the knowledge a curious soul could want
Reading my heart he knew just what I need
He knew of my hard times and the assorted petty crimes
So we made the substance to break away from the old ties
Break away from old ties.

I knew I would stay, stay here, what could I do?
I knew I would stay, stay here, what could I say?
I knew I would stay, stay here, there wasn't anything I would do.

They teach us a new way of living in our world
At first it was so strange, darkness filled my eyes
It was so brand new, I didn't even know myself.

But I knew I would stay, stay here, what could I do?
I knew I would stay, stay here, what could I do?
I knew I would stay, stay here
Learning their way is goin' to take a little bit of time, time
Remembering, it will take time.
Mmhmm. Little bit of time.
It will take time.
