Blue needs no charter to marble the veins. Green needs no ocean garner its name. Night needs no favour and weather no shame. Storms need no shoulders to carry their rain So neither do I need a witness to nod and agree If I see they mountains, they must see me The earls need titles, pastors need men Authors need stories more than stories need them Nations need children to rise and defend And statues an pledges and anthems, I guess So neither do I need a witness or a reason to please If I see they mountains, they must see me If proof is as much of a blanket as naked belief If I see they mountains, they must see me
