Artist: Heart

Lyrics

Wayfaring warrior soul - still wild
The archer stands
Arrow measured to the goal - sing of
Strong and living man
In his mind there is a vision of wand'ring
Through the forest town
Telling of riches only given if through
The woods the way is found

Cry! beautiful dancers ...wake up
From your sleep!
Ahhh gentle romancers...drink of love
So sweet!"

Treasure glowing in their eyes - the forest
Deepens dark their dream
"Keep to the pathway" he advised "for the woods
Are more than they might seem"
"I'd heed you now the apparition bending never
Ending sounds
Calling you away into her mystery - are your eyes
Not sparkling now?"

Sigh! "take you no warning -
Make no foolish fight
Ahh, think not of morning - lie here
Through the night!"

"Beauty take us!" they call "in my arms!"
They hear her say
It's the silken web falls - mist illusion rips away
"Help us! help us!" now they screaming
Help us! on the path he stands
And awakens, awakens from his dream singing string
Beneath his hand

Gentle archer ages old - release the aim
Free the goal
Come on roll your arrow to my soul - release the aim
Free the goal
