I've been walkin' in my sleep
And 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
They tell a story I used to know
It was one that happened so long ago
It's gone away in yesterday
And I find myself on the mountainside
Where the rivers change direction
Across the Great Divide
Well, I heard the owl callin'
Softly as the night was fallin'
With a question and I replied
But he's gone across the borderline
He's gone away in yesterday
And I find myself on the mountainside
Where the rivers change direction
Across the Great Divide
The finest hour that I have seen
Is the one that comes between
The edge of night and the break of day
When the darkness rolls away
It's gone away in yesterday
And I find myself on the mountainside
Where the rivers change direction
Across the Great Divide
It's gone away in yesterday
And I find myself on the mountainside
Where the rivers change direction
Across the Great Divide
