lyrics

FROM OUT THE BARROW
Music & Lyrics: Alexander James Adams

I come from out the barrow,
I have chosen you as wife!
I promise immortality and everlasting life-
Where a moment lasts forever and a journey has no end,
On the straight path of a ley line you will always feel the bend!

WON'T YOU COME WITH ME WHERE THE WATER RUNS DEEP?
WHERE THE FIRE HEART BURNS AND THE LAND IS ASLEEP?
LEAVE YOUR TEARS AND PAIN, LET YOUR HEART BE UNBOUND!
MEARLY MELT AS SPRING RAIN-
WITH ME INTO THE GROUND!

I will cover you with diamonds!
I will wrap you up in gold!
I'll warm you with the Earth’s blood!
I can cool with caverns cold!
You will never know a hunger, you will never feel a thirst!
I bring blessings from asunder, though by mortals I am cursed!

This offer I am making,
It will echo two nights more!
You have until the waning moon
To answer this implore-
On the third night of my singing, if your heart will not be true,
Then this darkness I am bringing, shall forever follow you!
