All Souls Night lyrics
Song information
Artist: Loreena Mckennitt Album: The Visit
Lyrics
Bonfires dot the rolling hillsides Figures dance 'round and around To drums that pulse out echoes of darkness Moving to the pagan sound
Somewhere in a hidden memory Images float before my eyes Of fragrant nights of straw and of bonfires Dancing 'til the next sunrise
Chorus: I can see the lights in the distance Trembling in the dark cloak of night Candles and lanterns are dancing, dancing A waltz alone: all souls night
Figures of cornstalks bend in the shadows Held up tall as the flames leap high The green-eyed holds the holly bush To mark where the old year passes by
Chorus
Bonfires dot the rolling hillsides Figures dance around and around To drums that pulse out echoes of darkness Moving to the pagan sound
Standing on the bridge that crosses The river that runs out to the sea The wind is full of a thousand voices They pass by the bridge and me
Chorus twice
