Ages Past, Ages Hence

Ancient castles on climbing cliffs
Summoned by the sea
Windswept shores and crashing waves
Rages furiously

Twisting trees old and true
Stand huddled watchingly
Oh, ages past, ages hence, pages turned carefully
Ages past, ages hence, pages turned carefully

What pagan smile has touched your lips
What melody so sweet
Soothed your breast, your beating heart
The underworld gone to sleep

Twisting trees old and true
Stand huddled watchingly
Oh, ages past, ages hence, pages turned carefully
Ages past, ages hence, pages turned carefully

Into the clutches of the night
I can see the torch lights shine bright
The gates are drawn, the hounds sit still
There's laughter that bubbles within

Down bend the trees quietly witnessing
Man's journey into himself
Ever turning ever churning
Cluthing the waves of his wealth

Yearning, a thirst never quenching
Tumble the thoughts untill they lie like petals on the ground
Gathered by winds stretched through the trees
To the wispering sound...

Ancient castles on climbing cliffs
Summoned by the sea
Windswept shores and crashing waves
Rages furiously

Twisting trees old and true
Stand huddled watchingly
Oh, ages past, ages hence, pages turned carefully
Ages past, ages hence, pages turned carefully

Ages past, ages hence, pages turned carefully
Ages past, ages hence, pages turned carefully
