about
In a faraway land in the deepest darkest woods lived the King. He spoke with the rivers so they would change their currents. He commanded the thunder and the lightings. Wildflowers bloomed where he stepped. He flied along with the winds as an equal. And each one of the habitants of this enchanted place bowed to him in awe. He had never bowed to anyone himself though, as he lived for many centures and thought he knew all the things in the world, and that nothing could change his soul, and life, and the Wood. But once upon a time he heard a magical song. Somewhere past the trees, beyond his kingdom. He was enthralled with this song and the voice that sang it. So he went, enchanted, through the hills and the rivers, out of the woods to the voice that stole his heart.
lyrics
Once upon a time so long ago
I will hear your distant call
Just beyond my woods, past the misty hills
And the rivers and the falls
I’ll forget then how to be the wind
How to sing the songs of birds
I will leave my wings, I will leave the throne
Bare my heart and down the wards
And take me by the hands
Lead me out of the woods
To the homestead in the foreign lands
Through the paths of thorns and soot
Take my crown off, give me your sweet wine
Cover me with golden flames
Under the bright starlight take my hands in yours
Call me by my one true name
And I’ll be all yours till the end of days
Unless the Sun shines down the Earth
Oh please find me in the deep dark woods
Lead me out and bring me home
