Rainbow - 'Man On The Silver Mountain' (official audio)

I'm a wheel, I'm a wheel
I can roll, I can feel
And you can't stop me turning

Cause I'm the sun, I'm the sun
I can move, I can run
But you'll never stop me burning

Come down with fire
Lift my spirit higher
Someone's screaming my name
Come and make me holy again

I'm the man on the silver mountain
I'm the man on the silver mountain

I'm the day, I'm the day
I can show you the way
And look, I'm right beside you

I'm the night, I'm the night
I'm the dark and the light
With eyes that see inside you

Come down with fire
Lift my spirit higher
Someone's screaming my name
Come and make me holy again

I'm the man on the silver mountain
I'm the man on the silver mountain

Come down with fire
And lift my spirit higher
Someone's screaming my name
Come and make me holy again

Well, I can help you, you know I can

I'm the man on the silver mountain
I'm the man on the silver mountain

Just look at me and listen
I'm the man, the man, give you my hand
I'm the man on the silver mountain

Come down with fire
And lift your spirit higher
I'm the man on the mountain
The man on the silver mountain
I'm the night, the light
The black and the white
The man on the silver mountain

Ο ύμνος "Man on the Silver Mountain" ήταν ουσιαστικά το τραγούδι με το οποίο μας συστήθηκαν οι Rainbow καθώς ήταν το πρώτο single που κυκλοφόρησαν αλλά και το εναρκτήριο τραγούδι του ντεμπούτου τους "Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow" (1975).

Σύνθεση του Ritchie Blackmore, στίχοι του Ronnie James Dio, ο οποίος είχε περιγράψει το κομμάτι ως: «A semi-religious one, a man on the silver mountain is a kind of God figure everyone is crying out to.» Δεν είναι καθόλου τυχαίο πως στον τάφο του Dio αναγράφεται: «The man on the silver mountain Ronnie James Dio.»
