The Battle of Evermore

  • Led Zeppelin

The Queen of Light took her bowAnd then she turned to goThe Prince of Peace embraced the gloomAnd walked the night alone

Oh, dance in the dark of nightSing to the morning lightThe dark Lord rides in force tonightAnd time will tell us all

Oh, throw down your plow and hoeRest not to lock your homesSide by side we wait the mightOf the darkest of them all

I hear the horses' thunderDown in the valley belowI'm waiting for the angels of AvalonWaiting for the eastern glow

The apples of the valley holdThe seeds of happinessThe ground is rich from tender careRepay, do not forget, no, noOh, dance in the dark of nightSing to the morning light

The apples turn to brown and blackThe tyrant's face is red

Oh the war is common cryPick up you swords and flyThe sky is filled with good and badThat mortals never know

Oh, well, the night is longThe beads of time pass slowTired eyes on the sunriseWaiting for the eastern glow

The pain of war cannot exceedThe woe of aftermathThe drums will shake the castle wallThe ringwraiths ride in blackRide on

Sing as you raise your bowShoot straighter than beforeNo comfort has the fire at nightThat lights the face so cold

Oh dance in the dark of nightSing to the mornin' lightThe magic runes are writ in goldTo bring the balance backBring it back

At last the sun is shiningThe clouds of blue roll byWith flames from the dragon of darknessThe sunlight blinds his eyes

Oh, bring it back, bring it backBring it back, bring it backBring it back, bring it backBring it back, bring it backOh now, oh now, oh nowOh now, oh now, oh nowBring it back, bring it backBring it back, bring it backOh now, oh now, oh nowOh now, oh now, oh nowBring it, bring it, bring itBring it, bring it, bring itBring it, bring it, bring itBring it, bring it, bring it
