lyrics

Twilit, eyes flit
Flicker in the fire’s fold
Wind’s kiss, Tell me this
What ancient power your stories hold

Stars high, lullaby
Stirring sweetly mem’ries old
Wind’s kiss, tell me this
What secrets have you left untold

Oak and ash and orange tree
Sweet blossoms will you sing to me
Oak and ash and orange tree
Sweet blossoms shower over me

Whispers winding
Take me to your sylvan glade
Glimpsed and finding
What music have you left unplayed

Oak and ash and orange tree
Sweet blossoms will you sing to me
Oak and ash and orange tree
Sweet blossoms shower over me

The midnight’s wind has kissed my strings
No fingers pluck the melody
But in the stirrings my mind sings
As your blossoms shower over me

Twilit, eyes flit
Flicker in the fire’s fold
Wind’s kiss, Tell me this
What ancient power your stories hold

Oak and ash and orange tree
Sweet blossoms will you sing to me
Oak and ash and orange tree
Sweet blossoms shower over me
