Lyrics

Clear light on a slick palm

as I mis-deal the day

Slip the night from a shaved pack

make a marked card play

Call twilight hours down

from a heaven home

high above the highest bidder

for the good Lord's throne

In the wee hours I'll meet you

down by Dun Ringill

oh, and we'll watch the old gods play

by Dun Ringill

We'll wait in stone circles

`til the force comes through

lines joint in faint discord

and the stormwatch brews

a concert of kings

as the white sea snaps

at the heels of a soft prayer

whispered

In the wee hours I'll meet you

down by Dun Ringill

oh, and I'll take you quickly

by Dun Ringill.
