the queen of light took her bow , and then she turned to go

the prince of peace embraced the gloom , and walked the night alone

the dark lord rides in force tonight and time will tell us all .

side by side we wait the might of the darkest of them all .

i hear the horses thunder , down in the valley below

i’m waiting for the angels of avalon , waiting for the eastern glow

the apples of the valley hold the seeds of happiness ,
