GRENDEL track 1 - Heorot's Sun (Grendel)
[Verse 1] Beyond the reeds and frozen stone I watched them build a hall of gold Its fire a source of light and joy Its walls would never fear the cold [Verse 2] Their laughter rang through mist and rain A distant World of warmth and song Not something for the son of Cain Not something for a soul so wrong (Chorus) What is this light beyond the trees? That calls to hearts, but not to mine A thousand voices joined as one Around the glow of Heorot's Sun I stand where earth and darkness meet In a world apart from everyone And though I haven't crossed those walls I feel the glow of Heorot's Sun [Verse 3] The seasons turned the hall grew tall Its golden roof embraced the light It gave me hope and inspiration It was my beacon in the night [Verse 4] Their songs would drift across the wind Of Kings and Queens I'd never known And something stirred inside my heart For a tribe to call my own (Chorus) What is this light beyond the trees? That calls to hearts, but not to mine A thousand voices joined as one Around the glow of Heorot's Sun I stand where earth and darkness meet In a world apart from everyone And though I haven't crossed those walls I feel the glow of Heorot's Sun [Bridge] I do not know their names I do not know their ways But every fire they light Illuminates my gaze Perhaps beyond those walls There waits a place for me Beyond the mist and silence Beyond this endless sea (Chorus) What is this light beyond the trees? That calls to hearts, but not to mine A thousand voices joined as one Around the glow of Heorot's Sun I stand where earth and darkness meet In a world apart from everyone And though I haven't crossed those walls I feel the glow of Heorot's Sun [Chorus] What is this light beyond the trees? That calls to hearts, but not to mine A distant world I cannot touch Yet somehow means so very much Now as the night unfolds its wings I watch the hall against the sky Unaware my only wish Is a wish about to die (Chorus) What is this light beyond the trees? That calls to hearts, but not to mine A thousand voices joined as one Around the glow of Heorot's Sun I stand where earth and darkness meet In a world apart from everyone And though I haven't crossed those walls I feel the glow of Heorot's Sun Heorot's Sun Heorot's Sun Heorot's Sun
