Led Zeppelin - 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 night, sing to the morning light
The Dark Lord rides in force tonight
And time will tell us all

Oh, throw down your plow and hoe
Race now to my bow

Side by side we wait the might
Of the darkest of them all

I hear the forces asunder down in the valley below
I'm waiting for the angels of Avalon
Waiting for the eastern glow

The apples of the valley hold the seeds of happiness
The ground is rich from tender care
Which they do not forget, no, no
Dance in the dark night, sing to the morning light

The apples turn to brown and black
The tyrant's face is red
Oh, war is the common cry
Pick up your swords and fly
The sky is filled with good and bad
Mortals never know

Oh well, the night is long
The beads of time pass slow
Tired eyes on the sunrise
Waiting 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)

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

Oh, dance in the dark night
Sing to the morning 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
With flames from the dragon of darkness
The sunlight blinds his eyes

Oh, bring it back, bring it back...
