Lyrics
The tide was laughing
Our shade was sung
Drummed past a solstice
Where faeries hum
Slaved for these masters
To evening's rung
Won't you christen me
Come on now, christen me
To the foundings of the valley deep
Won't you christen me
And stake your heart on mine
To places, other times
It's a long way
It's a long way to get back home
On trails of eden
Said trumpets blare
This yearling's burden
A priestly air
Paid for his masters
As autumn's hare
Won't you carry me
Come on now, carry me
To the foundings of the deepest deep
Won't you carry me
And place your heart on mine
For places, other times
It's a long way
It's a long way to get back home
Decree Osiris
To a fleeing thoth
I oaked more knowledge
Than you might have caught
Paid for this master
Who is the dawn
Won't you bury me
Come on now, bury me
And stake your heart on mine
To places, other times
It's a long way
It's a long way to get back home
