Restless Son

from Phoenix by Ivvas

/

lyrics

Once upon a time under enchanting rays upon high
Comes a tale of olden ways writhed in solitary times
Upon the lands of burgundy lived a son amongst higher gods
Who lived to drink and serenade the lass of solitary times

Restless son of a velvet tongue
A restless soul with a cross to bear
Restless son of a velvet tongue
A restless soul with a cross to bear
…not aware…

An enchanting ray of light, which came to resonate upon holy ground
Amongst the soil of grapes divine, within her solitary time
She walked the grounds with lightened feet as a fairy of Nottingham
He never saw her coming as he drank in solitary times

Restless son of a velvet tongue
A restless soul with a cross to bear
Restless son of a velvet tongue
A restless soul with a cross to bear
…not aware…

Awakened from his slumber, he sighed a breath of relief
That he may live another day to find the love that he never thought he could

Consumed enchanted drops of strength shall bring desire this holy night
For what was once a night of ennui in solitary times
He brought his lungs to full avail that he may bring upon holy grounds
To sing his way into her heart within her solitary time

Restless son of a velvet tongue
A restless soul with a cross to bear
Restless son of a velvet tongue
A restless soul with a cross to bear
…not aware…

She witnessed him as he began to sing his way into her domain
That she may feel an ounce of longing in her solitary time
The blood inside began to run within a heart of a beating drum
And she was overcome with emotion for a solitary time

Restless son of a velvet tongue
A restless soul with a cross to bear
Restless son of a velvet tongue
A restless soul with a cross to bear
…not aware…
That through the waves of passion from which he sang, she had felt the same as he
And all the rest of us can say that they would grow apart nevermore, nevermore

And so this ends the tale under enchanting rays upon high
Of olden ways in days of grey writhed in solitary times
For within the lands of Burgundy lived a son amongst higher gods
Who lived to drink and serenade the lass of solitary times!
