Incredible String Band - Greatest Friend lyrics

The greatest friend I have in life Has brought me here to dwell Awhile among your green green hills All by the watery well The water from that wondrous well Has made my eyes to see And loosed my tongue to sing with joy That such a griend can be The greatest friend I have in life Was hidden long from me Above the mountains cold and wide Beneath the sacred tree That sacred tree whose bark I touched Whose leaves did tell to me The ancient tales that made me sure My friend would come to me My greatest friend a song has given To sing where I may go To sing among the green green hills And where the waters flow The waters from that wondrous well That made my eyes to see And made my mind to ever show My greatest friend to me.
