Battle of Evermore

There are twosongs that I think have the most poetic lyric 
1. the Battle of Evermore.

The Queen of Light took her bow and then she turned to go
The Prince of Peace embraced the gloom and walked the night alone

Oh, dance in the dark night, sing to the morning light
The Dark Lord rides in force tonight, and time will tell us all

Oh, throw down your plow and hoe, race now to my bow

Side by side we wait the might, of the darkest of them all

I hear the horses thunder down in the valley below
I'm waiting for the angels of Avalon, waiting for the eastern glow

The apples of the valley hold the seeds of happiness
The ground is rich from tender care, repay, do not forget, no, no 
Dance in the dark night, sing to the morning light

The apples turn to brown and black, the tyrant's face is red

Oh, war is the common cry, pick up your swords and fly
The sky is filled with good and bad, mortals never know 

Oh well, the night is long, the beads of time pass slow 
Tired eyes on the sunrise, waiting for the eastern glow

The pain of war cannot exceed the woe of aftermath
The drums will shake the castle wall, the Ringwraiths ride in black (ride on)

Sing as you raise your bow, (ride on) shoot straighter than before
No comfort has the fire at night that lights the face so cold

Oh, dance in the dark night, sing to the morning light
The magic runes are writ in gold to bring the balance back, bring it back

At last the sun is shining, the clouds of blue roll by 
With flames from the dragon of darkness, the sunlight blinds his eyes


2 Sympathy for the Devil.

Please allow me to introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
I've been around for a long, long year
Stole many a man's soul and faith

And I was 'round when Jesus Christ
Had his moment of doubt and pain
Made damn sure that Pilate
Washed his hands and sealed his fate

Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game

I stuck around St. Petersburg
When I saw it was a time for a change
Killed the Tsar and his ministers
Anastasia screamed in vain

I rode a tank
Held a general's rank
When the blitzkrieg raged
And the bodies stank

Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name, oh yeah
Ah, what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game, oh yeah

I watched with glee
While your kings and queens
Fought for ten decades
For the gods they made

I shouted out,
"Who killed the Kennedys?"
When after all
It was you and me

Let me please introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
And I laid traps for troubadours
Who get killed before they reached Bombay

Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game, oh yeah, get down, baby

Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah
But what's confusing you
Is just the nature of my game

Just as every cop is a criminal
And all the sinner's saints
As heads is tails
Just call me Lucifer

Cause I'm in need of some restraint
So if you meet me
Have some courtesy
Have some sympathy, and some taste

Use all your well-learned politesse
Or I'll lay your soul to waste, um yeah
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, um yeah

But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game, um mean it, get down
Woo, who
Oh yeah, get on down

Oh yeah
Oh yeah!
Tell me, baby, what's my name
Tell me, honey, can ya guess my name

Tell me, baby, what's my name
I tell you one time, you're to blame
Ooo, who
Ooo, who

Ooo, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who

Ooo, who, who
Oh, yeah
What's my name
Tell me, baby, what's my name

Tell me, sweetie, what's my name
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who

Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who
Ooo, who, who

Oh, yeah

For Our Champion

With a home run or a goal.

  A touchdown or a pin.

    With a field goal or a run.

      or a lose or a win.

        You are a champion

          in any shape or style.

            And you are a friend.

              Who'll go that extra mile.

A Lonely Heart.

Have you ever seen a field with a single blade of grass.

Or a midnight sky with one star as the moon made a pass.

Have you ever seen a clear blue sky with just one fluffy cloud blowing in the breeze.

Or a single snow flake riding on the wind in the winter freeze.

Have you ever been alone in a crowd of thousands of people Without a single soul to share a moment of time.

Its hard to be alone without a reason, without a rhyme.

Without someone to guide your way.

Without a light to brighten your day.

Without a hand to hold you high.

Without a love who'll never lie.

So extend a hand and make a friend.

Make a love you can depend.

Bring someone close to be your mate.

And do it soon, its not to late.

I Sing.

I sing a song of pain and sorrow.

I sing my song of hope for tomorrow.

I sing and pray for a better day.

That we can learn a better way.

A song of peace and harmony

A song of love and such beauty.

I sing to touch the lonely heart.

To keep us close and never part.
To walk beneath a starlit sky.
To free the heart and watch it fly.
A song to stir an aching soul.
And sooth the mind and make it whole.
A song to bring us all together.
Through cloudy skies and stormy weather.

When all our dreams come true.

This is a time of marvelous things
When lights are flashing and dreams are growing.
These are the days of wine and roses.
Smiles and laughter and music playing.
Crazy days of dance and dining.
We look for friends and find new loves.
These are the times we all can cherish.

There's no more fighting all peace surrounds us.

Come and join us in fields of sunshine.
Come sing the songs of happy times.

This is a day when enemies unite.
For hand in hand we walk together.
These are the days for love to find us.
Just take my hand and love your brother.
Here is the place we come together.
No more tears and no more sorrow.
These are words we take for our own.

When all our dreams will come true.

Memories

A smile a laugh a chuckle and a grin.
All these thing I know I'll see again.
The joy the peace the comfort that you brought.
Are all the things you passed with only a thought.
Now my days will be darker and all this I know,
But the night will be brighter with your star aglow.
I'll miss all your words that bought peace to my day.
Till the time that we meet again in heaven someday.

One More Chance.

In the darkness of a lonely room.

Just sitting staring at the moon.

I could feel my heart break

And the lonely ache.

From your absence in my quiet room.

And all the hard words we said.

And my feelings of fear and dread.

As you walked away.

What could I say.

The hurt I saw straight ahead.

I remember the days of laughter.

And the happiness we felt after.

All the sunny days.

The magic ways.

We played in the hay and rafters.

Then stupidity came along.

I watched as it all went wrong.

All our sad words

The lonely birds.

That danced to my sad, sad song.

Now here I am crying today.

To stop you from going away.

With a broken heart.

I'm not so smart.

The pain I'll take it all away.

Please give me just one more chance.

Come back and we can dance.

I can mend my ways.

No more lonely days.

I've loved you from my first glance.
