Beside The Ring Of Ancient Stone

I remember times of darkened robes
And the whispers heard within my lobes
Soft whispers we impart
Precious memories within my heart

Beside the ancient ring of power
Beneath the shadow of the elemental towers
Where we would meet within our sleep
Heaven knows with earthly feet

Salamanders would spark the fire
To quill thy hand and our desire

Shone have we, the shadows within the dark
Loneliness within my heart
For in the hidden forest where we've roamed
Alas to know the pathway home

Sombre beads would undines gleam
Among the shadows within the streams
Sylphs soar across the skies
To carry forth the tears we cried

Gnomes toil among the turf
And there were times you called me murph

Follow footsteps I endure
And listen to the planets allure
Ancient ones would hold the gate
Alas to know our place in fate

Sylphs aide those among our plight
Mystic beams, etheric light

Beside the ring of ancient stone
Within our hidden forest where we roam
Cast no shadow for I am home
Among the elements where we roam
