Lanterns Over Tara

लिरिक्स

[Verse 1] I climbed the hill past the gate Where the moss wore the morning green Your name was carved in the stone Like a secret I had seen The crows flew low over fields And the river flashed like glass You said, “If you want the old magic You don’t get to ask” I found your ribbon on a thorn By the rowan, red and bright And the wind kept laughing soft As it tugged at my sleeve all night [Pre-Chorus] Oh, the road bends gold When you’re walking close to me Oh, the door swings wide To the world beneath the trees [Chorus] Lanterns over Tara Lead me back to you Lanterns over Tara Burning sky-blue I’ll follow that sparkle I’ll follow that call Lanterns over Tara We won’t fall [Verse 2] At the castle by the lake There was dancing in the hall Silver cups and lemon cake And a harp against the wall The queen wore ivy in her braid And she winked like she knew my name You were there in a cloak of rain Looking wild, looking changed We stole out through the orchard dark Past the apples, past the dew You laughed like a violin When the moon came into view [Pre-Chorus] Oh, the road bends gold When you’re walking close to me Oh, the door swings wide To the world beneath the trees [Chorus] Lanterns over Tara Lead me back to you Lanterns over Tara Burning sky-blue I’ll follow that sparkle I’ll follow that call Lanterns over Tara We won’t fall [Bridge] Now the giants sleep in stone And the tide sings under the pier But I know your hands by heart I know how to bring you near Take my word, take my fire Take the salt and take the rain If the dark is meant to test us Let it call our names again [Breakdown] Oh-oh, oh-oh Over the hills Oh-oh, oh-oh Through the thistle and the mist [Final Chorus] Lanterns over Tara Lead me back to you Lanterns over Tara Burning sky-blue I’ll follow that sparkle I’ll follow that call Lanterns over Tara We won’t fall Lanterns over Tara Hear the heavens hum Lanterns over Tara Here we come I’ll follow that sparkle I’ll follow that call Lanterns over Tara We won’t fall
