The Battle Of Evermore (Take 5) Songtext / Lyric

The queen of light took her bow

And then she turned to go

The prince of peace embraced the gloom

And walked the night alone



Oh, dance in the dark of night

Sing to the morning light



The dark lord rides in force tonight

And time will tell us all



Oh, throw down your plow and hoe

Rest not to lock your homes



Side by side, we wait the might

Of the darkest of them all



I hear the horses' thunder

Down in the valley below

I'm waiting for the angels of Avalon

Waiting for the eastern glow






The apples of the valley hold

The seeds of happiness

The ground is rich from tender care

Repay, do not forget, no, no



Oh, dance in the dark of night

Sing to the morning light



The apples turn to brown and black

The tyrant's face is red



Oh, war is common cry

Pick up your swords and fly



The sky is filled with good and bad

That mortals never know, oh, now



Ah



Oh well, the night is long

The beads of time pass slow

Tired eyes on the sunrise

Waiting for the eastern glow



The pain of war cannot exceed

The woe of aftermath

The drums will shake the castle wall

The ringwraiths ride in black, ride on



Sing as you raise your bow

(Ride on)

Shoot straighter than before



No comfort has the fire at night

That lights the face so cold



Oh, dance in the dark of night

Sing to the morning light



The magic runes are writ in gold

To bring the balance back

Bring it back



At last the sun is shining

The clouds of blue roll by

With flames from the dragon of darkness

The sunlight blinds his eyes



Bring it back, bring it back

Bring it back, bring it back

Bring it back, bring it back

Bring it back, bring it back



Oh now, oh now, oh now, ah

Oh now, oh now, oh now

Bring it back, bring it back

Bring it back, bring it back



Whoa now, oh now, oh now, oh

Whoa now, oh now, oh now

Bring it, bring it, bring it, bring it

Bring it, bring it, bring it

Bring it, bring it, bring it

Bring it, bring ah
