A 100 years of toil and pain
|
To pull a stone upright again
|
Uproot from its mountain home
|
Taken to this sacred circle
|
|
Is there a secret in the stone?
|
A message in the hills
|
Is there a secret in the stones?
|
A message long ago
|
|
I know the king will come again
|
|
From the shadow to the sun
|
|
Burning hillsides from the beltane fires
|
|
I know the king will come again
|
|
When all that glitters turn to rust
|
|
Uther pendragon standing fast beside you
|
The sun the moon we worshipped here
|
A calendar of fear
|
Gazing across the channel sea
|
To see the beacons burning brightly
|
|
Is that a shadow on the hill?
|
Or a phantom in the mere
|
What is the meaning of these stones?
|
Why do they stand alone?
|
|
I know the king will come again
|
|
From the shadow to the sun
|
|
Burning hillsides with the beltane fires
|
|
I know the king will come again
|
|
When all that glitters turn to rust
|
|
Uther pendragon standing fast beside you
|
Is that a shadow on the hill?
|
Or a phantom in the mere
|
What is the meaning of these stones?
|
Why do they stand alone?
|
|
I know the king will come again
|
|
From the shadow to the sun
|
|
Burning hillsides with the beltane fires
|
|
I know the king will come again
|
|
When all that glitters turn to rust
|
|
Uther pendragon standing fast beside you
|
I know the king will come again
|
I know the king will come again
|
