Autumn (rock) The Night I Bore The Maiden`s Child Lyrics

The Night I Bore The Maiden`s Child Lyrics

it was to be the strangest night i'd ever know

it was the night i'd bear the maiden's child

and break the spell

and break the line

it would have kept me from my truth until the end of time 

and then the maiden spoke to me

kissed my eyes, she let me breathe

and when her veils fell to the sea

she picked me up and carried me

to a place where lovers bleed

the blood of love, so tender sweet

now looking back to where i'd lain

i knew then i'd never rise again 

she broke the spell and broke the line

that could have kept me from the truth until the end of time 

though i've played among the fallen leaves

taken in the splendor of the seas

and mother moon still muses me

in her, i've found

my eternity
