He was in the forest looking to see the trees
But none were there
He found a girl
She found the Erlking (The lover)
They were in the white wood
Gamboling out to picnic
In the light leaves broke above
Then fell below

I was in the middle ground, looking to find the

Flowers in the garden
Wearying of the "hate me, hate me not"
Wait, they forgot
Woe, oh the rot!
Deeper in they crept
Oblivious of the bears and darker terrors
Or none were there
How did they dare?

I was in the middle ground, looking to find the

Fountain of infinite mirror
Tree falling, no one would hear
Shadow of nobody there
Murders of murderers living in fear of it

Owls on the night watch
Solemn and easily wise to what we thought
They thought above
Sound broke below
They were in the black wood
Coveting indiscreetly her for him
Or him for her
Shown what they were

I was in the middle ground, looking to find the

Fountain of infinite mirror
Tree falling no one would hear
Shadow of nobody there
Murders of murderers living in fear of it

I was in the clearing
Buzzing around to hearing but the
Bees and birds who knew the words
Soon arrived the twilight
Finally the night and day remembered
How they came to be

All for nothing at all
All for nothing at all
With something to do
I was in the forest
Looking to see the trees
But none were there

We ought to leave a light on, leave a light on underneath the moon
Sitting in the sight of every eye, I believe in you
Open your window look out and see me
Slow I am coming a long way to be

An accidental light on, such as I am, by the lonely sun
Ever is the light on, is the light on, ever meant to run
Cold but I'm outside and waiting to see
Blowing the snow coming closer to me

Tonight I'm arriving alive and alight
Tonight all the black and the gray and the white
And I want to be like you are the one light
I want to see your eyes looking back and into mine

Better when the light comes in the night time opening the door
Hoping to be right, it's open every night
So whatcha waiting for?

Open your window look out and see me
Slow I am coming a long way to be

Tonight I'm arriving alive and alight
Tonight all the black and the gray and the white
And I want to be like you are the one light
I want to see your eyes looking back and into mine

Something is real, maybe not
Something is gone
Something is here, only thought
All that you want
Everything else will follow

Tonight I'm arriving alive and alight
Tonight all the black and the gray and the white
And I want to be like you are the one light

I want to see your eyes looking back and into mine

In my dreams I catch your eye
And It’s strange to see it shine
I strum my guitar beside the sea
And I pray for your light to guide me

Couldn't betray you if I tried
Dreamt that I’ve stayed there by your side
Now when I see the setting sun
I picture you there in Avalon

In this garden of disgrace
I can still remember the taste
They call me the lion and now I’m roaring
So many have died by this sword

Couldn't betray you if I tried
Dreamt that I’ve stayed thеre by your side
Now when I see thе setting sun
I picture you there in Avalon

I’ll die defending your glory
Your chivalry’s not a story
I’ll die defending your glory
Your chivalry’s not a story

Couldn't betray you if I tried
Dreamt that I’ve stayed there by your side
Now when I see the setting sun
I picture you there in Avalon

I’ll die defending your glory
Your chivalry’s not a story
I’ll die defending your glory
Your chivalry’s not a story
