lyrics

You sailed your life on a ship of dreams
Tied to the mast of a thousand schemes
You waved your friends goodbye
Took flight like a firefly
Like thunder from afar…

You were caught standing in the snow blind cold
Still trusting in a land of gold
One star in a crowded sky
Poured your heart out in a lullaby
Like sunshine in the rain
You wished for everyone to know just who you are
Like a rising melody above a loud guitar
The woman that you craved
Couldn`t help you with the price you paid
Building castles with a falsity of highs
I close my eyes

You always said our lives are a timeless flight
We come and go at the speed of light
We wave our loves goodbye
We hear our calling and we all comply
The wheel turns round again…

You wished for everyone to know just who you are
Like a rising melody above a loud guitar
The woman that you craved
Couldn`t help you with the price you paid
Building castles with a falsity of highs
I close my eyes

The songs you sang will be always heard
Goodbye once more my Thunderbird
Sail forever on your ship of dreams
Forever gliding upon silver streams
The lightening spells your name…

You wished for everyone to know just who you are
Like a rising melody above a loud guitar
The woman that you craved
Couldn`t help you with the price you paid
Building castles with a falsity of highs
I close my eyes

Allow me to copy Pagan Altar's third album title to describe not only III:Pentecost but the whole discography of Wytch Hazel so far: well, yes, it's Magical and Mythical!!! A must-have for the lovers of 70's hard sound revival. BoneWalker
