lyrics

The king was looking at his crown
And his fame was long since gone
And the battle noises are drawing near
The king he stumbled from his throne
And grief cuts him to the bone
And the moon would light the valley

Night was golden
Night was golden

All his subjects were asleep
To the stable he would creep
And he mounted his black horse
He put spurs to its side
Until he reached a wooden hall
In the heart of the mountain wasteland

Night was golden
Night was golden
Night was golden
Night was golden

A thousand silver lurs would greet
And the horns were filled with mead
Women dancing around the fire
A greyish man with just one eye
Told him he had soon to die
But in this place he would be waiting

Night was golden
Night was golden

Filled with strength and confidence
He rode back to his elder son
My true heir your time has come
You will be the new king to rise
To the battle I must leave
With shield and sword to seal with blood

Night was golden
Night was golden
Night was golden
Night was golden

Otherworldly. I can't imagine where this came from because it's unlike anything else I've ever heard. Few artists achieve such a unique sound. millicow
