Lyrics:
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
I've been siftin' through the layers Of dusty books and faded papers They tell a story I used to know And it was one that happened so long ago
Chorus: It's gone away in yesterday Now I find myself on the moutainside Where the rivers change direction Across the Great Divide
Now, I hear the owl a-callin' Softly as the night was fallin' With a question and I replied But he's gone across the borderline
Chorus
The finest hour that I have seen Is the one that comes between The edge of night and the break of day It's when the darkness rolls away
Chorus Twice
