The Elf lyrics translation: AL STEWART The Elf song texte and letras AL STEWART The Elf tab, paroles and testo AL STEWART The Elf Karaoke and Music Video - none yet
I sat upon the evening hill
the shadows set
the night grew still
And as I sat guitar on knee
a voice of flowers called to me
sing, sing to me your song
sing, for I belong to the night
In the grey morning light I`ll be gone
I turned with eyes that strained for sight
and there amid the failing light
dimly saw a figure small
heard a voice of magic call
sing, sing to me your song
sing, for I belong to the night
In the grey morning light I`ll be gone
My fumbling fingers found the chords
My trembleing lips fought for the words
I stopped to ask the stranger how
He softly said no questions now
sing, sing to me your song
sing, for I belong to the night
In the grey morning light I`ll be gone
Then with the magic of the elves
My fingers danced among themselves
A heart with lightness thus endowed
Formed melodies I know not how
Song played the whole night long
Thus he danced and laughed through the night
and with grey morning light he was gone
Now the whispering wind plays o`r the hill
And the evening sounds again grow still
A year or more has passed since then
Oh, he will not pass my way again
So I sing, sing to you my song
Sing for I belong to the night
In the grey morning light I`ll be gone
