Warrior of the Night - Maya Love

[Verse 1] He came through the marshland black Boots full of rain and ash A scar on his left jawbone A sword with a bone-white wrap The old moon watched him pass Past the reeds and broken stone He heard the dead doors open And he did not walk alone [Pre-Chorus] One for the road, he said One for the names they took He lit a coal in his palm And the dark looked back and shook [Chorus] Warrior of the night Hold the line, hold the line Souls of the night, come close I came to carry you home Warrior of the night Burning slow, burning bright Souls of the night, come close I came to carry you home [Verse 2] Three bells rang from the ridge When the hollow wolves were near He cut through the frozen fog With the hush of a sharpened fear There were faces in the pines There were hands under the mud He spoke each lost name softly Like a vow in his own blood [Pre-Chorus] One for the child in white One for the king unmade He raised the blade to the sky And the crows all turned away [Chorus] Warrior of the night Hold the line, hold the line Souls of the night, come close I came to carry you home Warrior of the night Burning slow, burning bright Souls of the night, come close I came to carry you home [Bridge] When the gravewind calls your name I will answer with fire When the river takes your breath I will pull you higher (oh, rise) (oh, rise) (come back) (come back) [Final Chorus] Warrior of the night Hold the line, hold the line Souls of the night, come close I came to carry you home Warrior of the night Burning slow, burning bright Souls of the night, come close I came to carry you home I came to carry you home
