The Hollow Rings

Verse 1

Soft bodies drifting on the morning air

Woven from the mist above the silver stream

Marigold and clover bending to their dance

Petals falling slow across a waking dream

Pre-Chorus

I followed where the lanterns led

Down the mossy stair

Every tree had a face to show me

Every bloom a prayer

Chorus

Ethereal bodies on the wind

Turning leaves and turning skin

Fairytale around my head

I am lost where I began

Verse 2

Older than the oak that holds the gate

Smaller than the seed inside the stone

Whisper me the name you cannot keep

Answer me in honey and in bone

Pre-Chorus

The hollow rings with silver song

The root remembers all

I reach my hand into the twilight

Hear the nightshade call

Chorus

Ethereal bodies on the wind

Turning leaves and turning skin

Fairytale around my head

I am lost where I began

Bridge

Circle of the hawthorn

Circle of the fern

Circle spinning out of time

I never will return

Guitar Solo

Chorus

Ethereal bodies on the wind

Turning leaves and turning skin

Fairytale around my head

I am lost where I began

I am lost where I began
