Summer's End Lyrics

Taran
Another morning, cold and grey
Winter’s approaching day by day
Destroyed is all hope I were nobly born
And dreams of passion long forlorn

Craddoc
This land is no longer my own to call
Ours it is now, my dearest son
A wasteland now, fair it shall be again
For you to keep when I am gone

Taran
Days grow short and nighttime steals the light
Bound by ties of blood, don’t want to believe
All the life I lived drifts out of sight
From this cage of woe he will never leave

The Spirit
Two herdsmen in this valley will shape your fate
One you can only love, one you will hate
And treasured mem’ries of golden hair
Must fade like a misty morn in the mountain air

Gurgi
Is kindly master assistant pig-keeper
Brave Gurgi could not be more proud
Bold, clever Gurgi’s now assistant sheep-keeper
Hear them heed him with bleatings loud

Taran
Day by day I’m gazing at the sky
Yet no matter what, no hope can be found
This is where all souls must come to die
Will this valley be my burial ground

Craddoc
What I’ve never told you, my own son I’ve called you
Since the day you came to dwell
Not this day, no other you ever called me father
Yet perhaps one day you shall
Never will I leave this land

Taran
Dreams bound to fail built on sand

Gurgi
Time comes we’ll die where we stand

The Spirit
Learn your truth come summer’s end
