The Byrds — Wasnt Born to Follow

[Verse 1] Oh, I'd rather go and journey Where the diamond crescent's glowing And run across the valley Beneath the sacred mountain [Verse 2] And wander through the forest Where the trees have leaves of prisms And break the light in colors That no one knows the names of [Verse 3] And when it's time I'll go and wait Beside a legendary fountain 'Til I see your form reflected In its clear and jeweled waters [Verse 4] And if you think I'm ready You may lead me to the chasm Where the rivers of our vision Flow into one another [Instrumental Bridge] [Verse 5] I will want to dive beneath The white cascading waters She may beg, she may plead She may argue with her logic [Verse 6] And mention all the things I'll lose That really have no value In the end she will surely know I wasn't born to follow
