Lyrics:
On a cold and wintry night
two lovers lay by firelight
vows exchanged and limbs entwined
closed their eyes to dream a while
and in the warm glow as they slept
into the young man's mind a stranger
crept on silent wings with a measured step
came the Lady Morrighan
Awake, awake young hero
who is this woman you have bound yourself to?
Awake, awake young hero
who is this girl you've take to wife?
Arise, arise my hero
come follow me into the dawn of tomorrow
arise, arise my hero
come with me now or forfeit your life
As his young love gently slept
into the land of dreams he went
to find the voice that was Goddess
sent to seek the Lady Morrighan
and in that strange and distant land
a raven woman awaited him
but his love she'll never have
he'll not fly with you Morrighan
Beware, beware young hero
I mark this time now that you have mocked me
beware, beware young hero
when I felt love has now turned to hate
take care, take care my hero
a Goddess rejected will not be forgotten
take care, take care my hero
I'll have your life now you've sealed your fate
And in the morning's early light
he awoke with his young love by his side
the dreaming now had left his mind
but not the shadow of Morrighan
