October's Calling

When the rain has slowly fallen
When the moon has risen
When the light has gone
And the soft October's calling
Under a worn-out sky
Angel souls start to cry
Your face so pale disappears
Silence on my prayer

I hear the quiet call of the wind
Singing my name among the mist
I see the gentle trees growing darker beyond the hills

As I walk I'm counting my steps
As I light a cigarette
And I'm hiding from the shadows
And I try to fight my sorrow
As I call I hear no answer
As I fall I hear your laughter
And the day has turned to night
And the grey fading the light

When the fight has begun, proud silver daggers
Like flimsy stars are reaching for the heavens
Upon a broken ground the witches come to gather round
They start to chant I hear their voices dispel my fears

I hear the quiet call of the wind
A rainbow underneath the moon
I see the soldier trees uprising

As I walk I'm counting my steps
As I light a cigarette
And I'm hiding from the shadows
And I try to fight my sorrow
As I call I hear no answer
As I fall I hear your laughter
And the day has turned to night
And the grey fading the light

As I walk I'm counting my steps
As I light a cigarette
And I run and hide from the shadows
And I try to fight my sorrow
As I call I hear no answer
As I fall I hear your laughter
And the day has turned to night
And the grey fading the light

And the moon and the wild and the wanton darkness running with the wind when the dawn is calling

As I walk I'm counting y steps
As I light a cigarette
And I see the tide and flow come and go
And I'm laughing at my sorrow
As I call I hear your answer
The signs are all around here
Swirling in the air let flow let go

As I light a cigarette
And I'm laughing at my sorrow
