Dun Ringill - Lyrics by Jethro Tull


Lyrics
Clear light on a slick palm
as I mis-deal the day

Slip the night from a shaved pack
make a marked card play

Call twilight hours down
from a heaven home
high above the highest bidder
for the good Lord's throne

In the wee hours I'll meet you
down by Dun Ringill ---
oh, and we'll watch the old gods play
by Dun Ringill

We'll wait in stone circles

`til the force comes through ---
lines joint in faint discord
and the stormwatch brews
a concert of kings
as the white sea snaps
at the heels of a soft prayer
whispered

In the wee hours I'll meet you
down by Dun Ringill ---
oh, and I'll take you quickly
by Dun Ringill
