Treasure [Take One]

Stephen Stills · Other Songs - Stephen Stills

Alone with my guitar

Living on a mountain far away, I saw a girl

Gypsy woman deepest in the world

When she moved it was a dance

We hid ourselves and I had no chance

For the treasure of the oneness

That like sand becomes a diamond

Before the wind

And while I changed my strings

A rocky mountain woman came to town to sing

Took my heart and ran

When she bade, me follow

I just took her hand

I began my journey to the east



A country boy searching for my peace

In the treasure of the oneness

That like sand becomes a diamond

Before the wind

I sit in deep reflection

There are no answers to my questions

Where did they go and which one took my heart

Which one took my soul

I may never see it clearly

There comes another woman

Now she turns to beckon me with the devil's key

The treasure of the oneness

Then becomes sand and there lies naked

Before the wind
