lyrics
(Marsh)
Now tamed in vision, lives forecast
By echoed lines of words once passed
Once caught the current, stretched in time
We bathed in stars to drink your wine
When open sails, they seized the sun
Caught solar winds to kingdom come
My air a ruin of your mind
Now drift away, you’re lost in time...
Awake is the night, alive is the song
Can you hear me on the wind?
Sail away with me, my love again,
Pray your heart will not give in
And my children sing their songs above,
Say their charm is not enough,
Sail away with me, my love again
Is eternity not a game we all play?
Beyond horizons, spirits yearn
For ghostly ports of no return
A spectral vision shrouds the way
The harbourmaster takes his pay
From eyes, your coin, it tricks him twice
The tune begins; a devil’s prize
And the river sings her song,
What cannot kill you makes you strong...
Awake is the night, alive is the song
Can you hear me on the wind?
Sail away with me, my love again,
Pray your heart will not give in
And my children sing their songs above,
Say their charm is not enough,
Sail away with me, my love again
Is eternity not a game we all...
...play in the night to dance in the sun
Read my future and my past
Sail away with me, my love again
Lash your hands unto the mast
Through my fingers pour time’s raging flood
Will the river take me home?
Sail away with me, my love again
‘cause eternity is the game, we all know...

The White Witch - A Symphonic Trilogy
by Magentasupported by 36 fans who also own “The Haruspex”
This is the most beautiful symphonic progressive music I have heard since I first heard Yes' Magnification nearly 20 years ago. Robert Reed's orchestrations are magnificent, and are very much on par with Trevor Rabin's film scores as well as Larry Groupe's score for Magnification. I am a french horn player, and his soaring horn parts are some of the best I have ever heard. For some reason I could not select Part1: Sacrifice as my favorite track. It is indeed my favorite.
