On A Storyteller's Night Lyrics - Magnum

There's a stormlamp on the table 

Throwing shadows to the gable 

And you swallow if your able 

On a storyteller's night 

From the poorhouse chimes indifferent 

Seven towers seven sisters 

Every blackheart walks the distance 

On a storyteller's night 

Try to sleep on your pillow and dream 

Sleep all God's children to keep 

Though we all lose track of time 

Disappears like painted lies 

Keep your night light burning 

I'll come through the wind and rain 

Keep your night light burning 

I'll be with you once again 

There's a chill wind at your back door 

And the fire cracks on the damp floor 

You hear footsteps but you're not sure 

On a storyteller's night 

See the night sky super nova 

Chase the cold moon passing over 

Start the dragon's fire to smoulder 

On a storyteller's night
