Ring Of Stones

Lyrics for Ring Of Stones

The painted face of evening shrouds the sleeping day voices in the twilight, murmur low The trees that lean toward the sky shake their weathered bones and timeless magic lingers here among the ring of stones. Like circles on the water beneath the rising moon a churchbell tolls the fading notes of time a fallen king of long ago sleeps the years alone and a night wind hums a requiem among the ring of stones And down a stairway to Valhallah it's steps of burning gold and a servant of a lifetime by his side with a dagger and a coat of steel to see him on his way, on his way Dianna sails her sea of cloud above her silver bowl the spirits of the darkness fill the air and me I'm just a travellin' boy so many miles from home and they say the devil, walks the road beneath the ring of stones
