Lyrics

[Verse 1]
And I think of you now as a dream that I had long ago
In a kingdom lost to time
And in the forests of evening the archer is bending a bow
And I see you bring him bread and wine
[Verse 2]
Down the legions of years the invaders have taken this land
And bent you to their will
And the murmurous fade of the ancients and all that they had
Though the magic lingers around you still
[Verse 3]
Oh, who will walk the stony roads of Merlin's time
And keep a watch along the boarder line?
And who will hear the legends passed in song and rhyme
Upon the shepherd's pipes of Merlin's time?
Written by: Al Stewart, Peter White
