The Battle Of Evermore

The Queen of Light took her bow, and then she turned to go

The Prince of Peace embraced the gloom

and walked the night alone

Oh, dance in the dark of night, sing 'till the mornin' light

The Dark Lord rides in force tonight

and time will tell us haw-all

Oh, throw down your plow and hoe, rest not to lock your home

Side by side, we await the might of the darkest of them all

Oh-ooh-whoa, ooh-whoa-oh-oh



I hear the horses' thunder down in the valley below

I'm waitin' for the angels of Avalon

Waitin' for the eastern glow



The apples of the valley hold the seeds of happiness

The ground is rich from tender care

Repay, do not forget, no, no

Oh, dance in the dark of night, sing to the morning light

The apples turn to brown and black, the tyrant's face is red

Ho, now/Oh, war is the common cry, pick up your swords and fly

The sky is filled with good and bad mortals never know

Now, oh-ho, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ahh/Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-ooh-oh-oh



Oh, well, the night is long, the beads of time pass slow

Tired eyes on the sunrise, waitin' for the eastern glow



The pain of war cannot exceed the woe of aftermath

The drums will shake the castle wall

The Ringwraiths ride in black, ride on

Oh, sing as you raise your bow/Ride on

Shoot straighter than before

No comfort has the fire at night that lights the face so cold

Dance in the dark of night, sing 'till the mornin' light

The magic runes are writ in gold to bring the balance back

Bring it back



At last, the sun is shining, the clouds of blue roll by

A-with flames from the dragon of darkness

The sunlight blinds his eyes, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah

Ah-oh-ho, ooh, ooh-ooh, aaah/oooh-ooh-ooh-uh-uhh



Bring it back, bring it back, a-bring it back, bring it back

Bring it back, bring it back, bring it back, bring it back

Oh, now, oh, now, oh, now, oh, oh, now, oh, now, oh, now

Bring it back, bring it back, bring it back, a-bring it back

Whoa, now, oh, now, oh, now, oh, whoa, now, oh, now, oh, now

Bring it
