The Moonking

This book of dreams

On the shelf, lay between

All the secrets you found out

So clever

So close your eyes

It remains to be seen

All the riches you can count

Forever

Through Heaven's gate

You run before it gets too late

Into the Celtic twilight

So pay the price

'Cause he won't ever ask you twice

The bells ring out at midnight

The Moonking is waiting again

And maybe he'll welcome you in

To ride on a warm solar wind

Back where your dreams can begin

The Moonking is calling again

But never a sound to be heard

So up through a bright silver sky

Waiting but never deterred

The longest sleep

Like a black dog at your feet

And the daytime will recede

So coldly

So jump in deep

There's no time to retreat

It's everything you need

Go slowly

The dead of night

You're saying words you can't recite

A sea of noise so empty

Get on your way

There's no excuse for the delay

Before it's just a memory

The Moonking is waiting again

And maybe he'll welcome you in

To ride on a warm solar wind

Back where your dreams can begin

The Moonking is calling again

But never a sound to be heard

So up through a bright silver sky

Waiting but never deterred

The Moonking is waiting again

And maybe he'll welcome you in

To ride on a warm solar wind

Back where your dreams can begin

The Moonking is calling again

But never a sound to be heard

So up through a bright silver sky

Waiting but never deterred
