The Eyes Of Fate Lyrics - Incredible String Band

Oh, who can see in the eyes of fate? 

All life alone in its chronic patterns 

Oh, swan, let me fly you 

To the land of no winds blowing 

I know nothing and know that I know nothing 

All is in the eye and in its blinks of seeing 

So just like the morning 

The ghost of the following day 

Listen 

Ory, ory, ory, ory 

Rear the rollers wild and stormy 

Echoes wholly only lonely long before, ory ory 

All rivalry and opinion still cast their wild spells 

Effort and contrariness change the directions of time 

The lion still growls in your hollowness 

Please let's be easy, please let's be friends 

Watching and learning like small children 

Till out of the morning is growing the strength of the day 

Listen 

Ory, cry, cry, ory 

Rear the rollers wild and stormy 

Echoes wholly only lonely long before, ory, ory 

Servant of fame or fame for a servant 

You see what you see, you see seldom what is 

Servant of fate or fate for a servant 

You see what you see, you see seldom what is 

Servant of fate, oh
