You Will Ride With Me Tonight Lyrics - In The Time Of Gods - Dar Williams

Have you called before your time? 

Rest your head against me Im a friend to travelers. 

Hold me tight my wings are strong, 

Wrap your arms around me 

Its a long way through the tunnel to the light. 

Speeding through the fields of flowers, 

Silver skies with distant showers 

My sister brought them 

All the seeds in spring were sown, 

How the tendriled vines have grown 

So full in Autumn 

May I say you seem too strong, 

Loose your silver hair 

'Cause its a long way through the tunnel to the light. 

Fates are poised above the strings, 

They know the span of life and wings, 

You are not of them. 

See the life these travelers chose 

Highway lamps on open roads 

That shine above them 

Do your fingers want to feel 

Tunnels made of dampened steel 

And why pretend that youre so dull 

May I say youre beautiful 

It makes me want to turn this thing around, 

Youll ride with me tonight, 

You will ride with me tonight, 

You will ride with me tonight.
