Back to The Kellaways
(Words and Music : Alf Davies)
| I tell of the passing of the Elves,
first were here then faded away As men we think first of ourselves, won't get some wisdom, in the way Three fatal unions, human and Elf, faced with the Devil's favourite choice To live for the future or live for the self, they chose with a knowing, confident voice |
||
| Oceans beckoned constantly The Havens waiting for the sign Three rings fading, the Fourth Age raging Time to cross the one-way line Time to cross that one-way line |
||
| Long ago they'd come ashore,
from Valinor, forever young To wrest back the jewels proud Morgoth wore, they stayed to keep the world in sun Now they are thin, maybe gone (just light), faded in spirit, shadows just there The songs of the ages, still there are songs, they were the light in total despair |
||
| Oceans beckoned constantly The Havens waiting for the sign Three rings fading, the Fourth Age raging Time to cross the one-way line Time to cross that one-way line |
||
They are the wonders of their time, Rivendell, Lothlorien |
||
Elrond with Vilya, heart of the three |
