Lyrics Merlin's Time - Al Stewart

And I think of you now
As a dream that I had long ago
In a kingdom lost to time
In the forest of evening
The archer is bending a bow
And I see you bring him bread and wine

(Aaaaah...)
(Aaaaah...)
(Aaaaah...)
(Aaaaah...)
Down the legions of years
The invaders have taken this land

And bent you to their will
And the memories fade of the ancients
And all that they had
Though the magic lingers round you still

Oh who would walk the stoney roads
Of Merlin's time
And keep the watch along the borderline
And who would hear the legends passed
In song and rhyme
Upon the shepherd pipes of Merlin's time
