Eilis Phillips - Avalon

You've come to the old city

are the men sleeping?

you crawled in on your belly

tried to get your king awaking

Bring me gold he cries, bring me wine

your body may be living but your soul is mine

Avalon-

See your queen is singing, with roses round her head,

she made herself a lovely halo

left the thorns for you instead

you cried out when you found

they'd locked the gates to Eden

you must enter into slumber

or else you'll serve the Demon

Avalon

Your mistress walks in darkness

I heard she feels dejected

don't tel me you neglected her again,

I guess you left us all

when you left yourself behind

now you're just a shadow with a

memory of a life,

Avalon

Now you've reached the gate

will you creep inside?

they promised you eternity

now who are they to lie?

Avalon.
