John Wood Lyr Req: Storyteller a.k.a. Paddy's Song (4) RE: Lyr Req: Storyteller a.k.a. Paddy's Song 03 Nov 99


Hi MudGuard.
Here's the text.....Taken from cover notes:
Pentangle-Think Of Tomorrow(Ariola 883 697/HYCD 200 112)1991.

The Storyteller(Paddy's Song),written by PENTANGLE:

I've heard all the stories you tell to your friends
The heart rendering stories of maidens and men
In the days gone before
And songs of the mist covered mountains and vales
Of demons and fairies and mischievous tales.

Come sing me a song with a haunting refrain
Of lovers forsaken and left all forlorn
In the saddest of tales
And lonely the piper will play just for me
And fill the night air with his sweet melodies.

Come sit down beside me and stay for a while
And tell me the secrets you hide 'neath your smile
And the glint in your eye
Then take hold of my hand as the band starts to play
We'll dance through the night till the stars fade away.

Come pour me a glass of the ruby red wine
We'll draw near the hearth and the warmth of the fire
In a rosy red glow
A chorus of fiddlers to join in so free
We'll drink to fond love and good company.

Greetings John(from Norway).
