The Mystic's Dream Lyrics - Nights From The Alhambra - Loreena Mckennitt

A clouded dream on an earthly night 

Hangs upon the crescent moon 

A voiceless song in an ageless light 

Sings at the coming dawn 

Birds in flight are calling there 

Where the heart moves the stones 

It's there that my heart is longing for 

All for the love of you 

A painting hangs on an ivy wall 

Nestled in the emerald moss 

The eyes declare a truce of trust 

And then it draws me far away 

Deep in the desert twilight 

Sand melts in pools of the sky 

When darkness lays her crimson cloak 

Your lamps will call, call me home

And so it's there my homage's due 

Clutched by the still of the night 

And now I feel you move 

And every breath is full 

So it's there my homage's due 

Clutched by the still of the night 

Even the distance feels so near 

All for the love of you. 

A clouded dream on an earthly night 

Hangs upon the crescent moon 

A voiceless song in an ageless light 

Sings at the coming dawn 

Birds in flight are calling there 

Where the heart moves the stones 

It's there that my heart is longing for 

All for the love of you
