Chantress Songtext
von Faeland

Oh the sun was singing lower in the sky
And a man unknown to these parts passed it by
He said a maiden fair is what I seek
I′ve been walking through them hills a week
The men looked up, the women they did speak
They said, if there's e′er a moment here that we find free
Oh the girls they run to the places they can be
They lift their voices to the clouds
Sing their hearts so free and loud
You'll find them down the oak, or at the glen

They'll be singing
Ooh la lie la lie la lie la lie la lie
Ooh la lie la lie la lie la lie la lie


That young man to his hat he tightly held
What were these things unknown to him of what they told
A shiver sent down to his spine, he said
Right, I′ll wait here till the night
The women laughed, the men spoke up to him
They said this night the moon is full, the girls will roam
The last thought of theirs tonight is coming home
And nothing will disturb their song
They′ll be howling there the whole night long
So gentlemen rest now, and let them be

They'll be singing
Ooh la lie la lie la lie la lie la lie
Ooh la lie la lie la lie la lie la lie
They′re singing
Ooh la lie la lie la lie la lie la lie
Ooh la lie la lie la lie la lie la lie

And as he slept he heard an ancient song call
Within his bones were notes so sad and beautiful
An oak, an ash, a thorn, a drum, a hand, a heart, a song
Colliding memories of places he had never walked

From the glens of oak, to by the sea
There are nights of song just weaving down the breeze
Find yourself a moment's rest, hear the sounds of singing breasts
You′ll find them down the oak, or at the shore

They'll be singing
Ooh la lie la lie la lie la lie la lie
Ooh la lie la lie la lie la lie la lie


They′re singing
Ooh la lie la lie la lie la lie la lie
Ooh la lie la lie la lie la lie la lie
They'll be singing
Ooh la lie la lie la lie la lie la lie
Ooh la lie la lie la lie la lie la lie

They'll be dancing
Ooh la lie la lie la lie la lie la lie
Ooh la lie la lie la lie la lie la lie
