Something's On The Move Lyrics - Stormwatch - Jethro Tull

She wore a black tiara 

rare gems upon her fingers 

and she came from distant waters 

where northern lights explode 

to celebrate the dawning 

of the new wastes of winter 

gathering royal momentum 

on the icy road. 

With chill mists swirling 

like petticoats in motion 

sighted on horizons 

for ten thousand years 

the lady of the ice sounds 

a deathly distant rumble 

to Titanic-breaking children lost 

in melting crystal tears.

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

Oh, sunshine --- take me now away from here 

I'm a needle on a spiral in a groove. 

And the turntable spins 

as the last waltz begins 

And the weather-man says 

something's on the move. 

Capturing black pieces 

in a glass-fronted museum 

the white queen rolls 

on the chessboard of the dawn 

squeezing through the valleys 

pausing briefly in the corries 

the Ice-Mother mates 

and a new age is born.

Oh, sunshine --- take me now away from here 

I'm a needle on a spiral in a groove. 

And the turntable spins 

as the last waltz begins 

And the weather-man says 

something's on the move. 

Driving all before her 

un-stoppable, un-straining 

her cold creaking mass 

follows reindeer down. 

Thin spreading fingers seek 

to embrace the sill-warm bundles 

that huddle on the doorsteps 

of a white London Town. 

Oh, sunshine --- take me now away from here 

I'm a needle on a spiral in a groove. 

And the turntable spins 

as the last waltz begins 

And the weather-man says 

something's on the move.
