The Twisted Oak - Blackmore's Night

The twisted oak has stories to tell

And there is nobody listening but me but it’s just as well

Here I’m always hoping to find

The peace of mind I’ve left behind

I find myself alone in the wood

Where only forest fairies and spirits understood

I lose myself hoping to find

The peace of mind I’ve left behind

Somewhere lost in a web of lies

The twilight whispers goodbye

Night was falling all around

And though the dawn was breaking, no pieces could be found

It’s there I go, hoping to find

The peace of mind I’ve left behind

Somewhere lost in a web of lies

The twilight whispers goodbye

Oh, the crickets sing their song

Singing to the moon and stars as I sing along

We sing together hoping to find

The peace of mind I’ve left behind

The twisted oak has stories to tell

And there is nobody listening but me but it’s just as well

Here I’m always hoping to find

The peace of mind I’ve left behind

My peace of mind I’ve left behind
