Gather round and listen close
 I'll now sing you a song
 Of blessed days gone by
 As sung once upon a time...

 Close your eyes and fly away
 To blessed days
 'Ere the Elves fled this world,
 'Ere dwarfs turned to stone...

 The world was fair,
 The mountains tall, the sky clear –
 The rivers run crystalline
 'Ere the dryads turned to willows...

 Close your eyes and fly away
 To blessed days
 'Ere the Elves fled this world,
 'Ere dwarfs turned to stone...

 Of the beauty that once was –
 Of the deep woods wherein
 The Faery folk did dwell...

 Can you remember at all
 The blessed days
 When knights roamed the land
 And dragons slain lay in their caves?

 Can you recall
 The name of the one
 The hero that put the giants to the sword
 And was hailed by all in a continent afar?

 Close your eyes and fly away
 To blessed days
 'Ere the Elves fled this world,
 'Ere dwarfs turned to stone...
