Many dreams have vanished from my view
I've chased them all
But there has been no answer
Though I recall
My innocence and laughter
I'm feeling older now
But what comes after this is through
Time had traced its maps across my face
Sign and lines for you to navigate
And in the end
There will be no returning
Lets not pretend
No regrets and no yearnings
Could keep and fill your heart
If all you've got to what you do
The ancient quest for meaning calls me now
Over the edge of my horizon
And all the fields of green that I must plow
To reap the harvest of the stars
I see the isle of Avalon
So blue, so green and real
I feel the smile, the victory won
By thinking words I feel
The broken beat of holy drums
Flashing eyes of suns
The chalice fills and overflows
Then ancient day's begun
Sail on you pilgrim wonderers
On tides of blessed faith
Here in this land of Albion
Two thousand years from you
Two thousand years from you
Two thousand years from you I will
Many years have passed me by, its true Many dreams have vanished from my view I've chased them all But there has been no answer Though I recall My innocence and laughter I'm feeling older now But what comes after this is through Time had traced its maps across my face Sign and lines for you to navigate And in the end There will be no returning Lets not pretend No regrets and no yearnings Could keep and fill your heart If all you've got to what you do The ancient quest for meaning calls me now Over the edge of my horizon And all the fields of green that I must plow To reap the harvest of the stars I see the isle of Avalon So blue, so green and real I feel the smile, the victory won By thinking words I feel The broken beat of holy drums Flashing eyes of suns The chalice fills and overflows Then ancient day's begun Sail on you pilgrim wonderers On tides of blessed faith Here in this land of Albion Two thousand years from you Two thousand years from you Two thousand years from you I will Explain Request ×
