All Souls Night

Lyrics

Bonfires dot the rolling hills
 Figures dance around and around
 To drums that pulse out echoes of darkness
 Moving to the pagan sound
 Somewhere in a hidden memory
 Images float before my eyes
 Of fragrant nights of straw and of bonfires
 And dancing till the next sunrise
 I can see lights in the distance
 Trembling in the dark cloak of night
 Candles and lanterns are dancing, dancing
 A waltz on All Souls Night
 ♪
 Figures of cornstalks bend in the shadows
 Held up tall as the flames leap high
 The green knight holds the holly bush
 To mark where the old year passes by
 I can see the lights in the distance
 Trembling in the dark cloak of night
 Candles and lanterns are dancing, dancing
 A waltz on All Souls Night
 ♪
 Bonfires dot the rolling hillsides
 Figures dance around and around
 To drums that pulse out echoes of darkness
 And moving to the pagan sound
 Standing on the bridge that crosses
 The river that goes out to the sea
 The wind is full of a thousand voices
 They pass by the bridge and me
 I can see the lights in the distance
 Trembling in the dark cloak of night
 Candles and lanterns are dancing, dancing
 A waltz on All Souls Night
 I can see the lights in the distance
 Trembling in the dark cloak of night
 Candles and lanterns are dancing, dancing
 A waltz on All Souls Night
