[00:01.52]Songs Title：crazy man michael
[00:04.32]
[00:15.33]Within the fire and out upon the sea
[00:20.40]
[00:21.47]Crazy Man Michael was walking
[00:25.49]
[00:26.98]He met with a raven with eyes black as coals
[00:32.93]
[00:33.82]And shortly they were a-talking
[00:37.93]
[00:39.92]Your future, your future, I will tell to you
[00:45.24]
[00:46.29]Your future, you often have asked me
[00:51.10]
[00:52.04]Your true love will die by your own right hand
[00:57.28]
[00:58.53]And Crazy Man Michael will cursed be
[01:03.25]
[01:05.31]Michael he ranted and Michael he raved
[01:10.05]
[01:10.93]And beat at the four winds with his fists-oh
[01:15.29]
[01:16.47]He laughed and he cried, he shouted and he swore
[01:22.43]
[01:23.48]For his mad mind had trapped him with a kiss-oh
[01:28.99]
[01:29.88]You speak with an evil, you speak with a hate
[01:35.01]
[01:36.06]You speak for the devil that haunts me
[01:40.75]
[01:41.69]For is she not the fairest in all the broad land?
[01:47.30]
[01:48.05]Your sorcerer's words are to taunt me
[01:53.27]
[02:43.94]He took out his dagger of fire and of steel
[02:49.18]
[02:50.18]And struck down the raven through the heart-oh
[02:54.38]
[02:56.14]The bird fluttered long and the sky it did spin
[03:01.45]
[03:02.57]And the cold earth did wonder and start-oh
[03:07.19]
[03:08.76]Oh, where is the raven that I struck down dead
[03:13.99]
[03:14.86]That here did lie on the ground-oh?
[03:19.11]
[03:20.37]I see but my true love with a wound so rare
[03:26.25]
[03:26.81]Where her lover's heart it did pound-oh
[03:31.46]
[03:33.35]Crazy Man Michael he wandered as a corpse
[03:38.53]
[03:39.34]And talks to the night and the day-oh
[03:43.93]
[03:44.68]But his eyes they are sane and his speech it is plain
[03:50.61]
[03:51.48]And he longs to be far away-oh
[03:54.83]
[03:58.13]Michael he whistles the simplest of tunes
[04:02.44]
[04:03.50]And asks the wild woods their pardon
[04:08.65]
[04:09.21]For his true love is flown into every flower grown
[04:14.97]
[04:15.79]And he must be keeper of the garden
