EmBonfires dot the Drolling hills
CFigures dance Bmaround and aAround
EmTo drums that pulse out Dechoes of darkness
CMoving to the Bmpagan Asound.
Somewhere in a hidden memory
Images float before my eyes
Of fragrant nights of straw and of bonfires
And dancing till the next sunrise.
® EmI can see lights in the Bmdistance
GTrembling Din the dark Emcloak of Bmnight
EmCandles and lanterns are dancing, Bmdancing
GA waltz Don All Souls ANight.
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 lights…
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 lights…2x
