Blue is the colour of heaven,
White the palace of the sun
Where diamonds shine
In the fountains of time
Yet time waits for no-one.
White is the lilly flower
That floats in the pools of my mind
Where a child with the strangest of powers
Awaits the fate of mankind.

I'm moving like a priestess
In my unicorn dress
As the day shatter's the night
And the doom dragons
That feasted at my door
Have been chased
By the swans in flight.

Like a tear that's never cried
Or a dream thats never died
I tread the veils of the sun
To where you and I begun.
Searching behind your cloak of stars
And the steamy Ballrooms of Mars
I search the whole universe to find
That you were with me all the time.

It seems that once upon a dream
As a dove danced on the sunbeams
I fought with warriors brave and bold
And wore a crown of purest gold.
Bloody battles won and lost,
That fateful day my life it cost
As a blazing arrow pierced my chest
And where I fell was laid to rest.
My golden crown stolen by the foe,
My lifeless body entombed below.
But still I heard my warriors cries
As I dove danced above the skies.
So many lives I've lived since then
But still I long for my warrior men
Who faught so fearlessly and died so brave,
For me, their king they tried to save.

At the gates of dawn on the dew kissed lawn
Kneeled the astral child and his unicorn
Keepers of the gate but 'twas too late
As the rainbow warrior sealed their fate
Like a ball you shine as I kiss the skies
At the gates of dawn nothing ever dies
In pain and peace be well he said
As the world then melted in my head.

Orphaned at birth
The misplaced youth
Child of the elements
Searching for truth
Walking the roads
That Gods would fear
Changeless Angel
I know you're near.
I know you're with me
You're everywhere
You're the reason
I wear stars in my hair
You are the one
Who gave life to me
And for this I will
Thankyou eternally.

Silent tree
In the woodland glade
Hides the truth
Within it's shade
Temper my loneliness
In these dark hours
Soon I'll break free
From your leafy bowers.

Soft wings of the Dove
Chase the pain away
Mend my broken heart
As I worship the new day
Tender kisses melt
Into the leafy blue
Loneliness I felt,
Like a ghost
Without you.

The Elvin Lord lie broken
Just like the dawn
Where to bring a small token
They gathered to mourn
Beneath the cold looming shadows
Of a sycamore tree
They hang rhymes and sweet chimes
That call softly to thee.

The spiders of the evil hour
Are coming in the flood
They scream in anguish,
They drink the wizards blood
Mad Loom beneath the cresent moon
She's dancing in the lightening
But the spell was cast way to soon
And what I saw was frightening.
