Lyrics
The Lost Sea
Chorus:
In the Cherokee caves,
at the Lost Sea,
Deep in the hills
of eastern Tennessee
You'd know what I mean,
If you've seen what I seen,
If you've been where I've been,
If you lived in my skin
There ain't no colors,
If there ain't no light,
Underground fish,
a wondrous sight
Chorus:
Bridge:
The fire still burns,
after 10,000 years,
you can still smell the smoke,
of the tribes that were here.
Chorus:
The poor rebel soldiers,
lay down and bleed,
The runaway slaves
fight to be free,
and the Yankee boys
don't know what they hear
The echoes of hell,
The demons of fear
