The Incredible String Band - Swift as the Wind lyrics
[The Incredible String Band - Swift as the Wind lyrics]
For my delight, swift as the wind flies
His chariot and wings shine in the
Light of a thousand suns
For he comes from the land of no night
He comes from the land of no night
There is no land
The night is all around my child
You must stop imagining all this
You must stop imagining all this
For your own good why don't you go with the
Rest and play downstairs?
Closing my eyes, I see him so clear
The blood on his sword
Flashes so bright as it falls to
The skulls by his feet
But his eyes they know all things, his eyes
They know all
There is no blood, no one knows all, my child
You must stop imagining all this
You must stop imagining all this
For your own good why don't you go with the
Rest and play downstairs?
Swift as the wind, stay if you will now
Seeing you again will be
Will be in your castle so fair
But I make take some time on the way
And I may spend some time downstairs
His chariot and wings shine in the
Light of a thousand suns
For he comes from the land of no night
He comes from the land of no night
There is no land
The night is all around my child
You must stop imagining all this
You must stop imagining all this
For your own good why don't you go with the
Rest and play downstairs?
Closing my eyes, I see him so clear
The blood on his sword
Flashes so bright as it falls to
The skulls by his feet
But his eyes they know all things, his eyes
They know all
There is no blood, no one knows all, my child
You must stop imagining all this
You must stop imagining all this
For your own good why don't you go with the
Rest and play downstairs?
Swift as the wind, stay if you will now
Seeing you again will be
Will be in your castle so fair
But I make take some time on the way
And I may spend some time downstairs
