Lyrics:

Evening came to Avalon, with a discontented sigh,
I stumbled over mud and loose rock, climbed up into the sky,
I stood beneath the ruined chapel, alone with the windswept stones,
The flat round table plateaus sprawling out, pock-marked with crag-toothed thrones.

I heard the birds up above, and the dogs in the distance,
Saw the sunlight above, offering its last resistance.
The city lit up, in brilliant pink,
Watched the day lingering on the brink.

Watched the moon rising up, out east over the North Sea,
Saw the lights over the Firth, islands in the bay and ships docked in the quay.
Followed the tourists down the rocky paths back home again
Saw your starry eyes peer from the heavens at the forests and the fens.
