Lyrics for Dun Ringill

Clear light on a slick palm As I mis-deal the day Slip the night from a shaved pack Make a marked card play Call twilight hours down From a heaven home High above the highest bidder For the good Lord's throne In the wee hours I'll meet you Down by Dun Ringill --- Oh, and we'll watch the old gods play By Dun Ringill We'll wait in stone circles 'Til the force comes through --- Lines joint in faint discord And the stormwatch brews A concert of kings As the white sea snaps At the heels of a soft prayer Whispered In the wee hours I'll meet you Down by Dun Ringill --- Oh, and I'll take you quickly By Dun Ringill.
