Lyrics: Far away, sheltered by
Fields of grain swept by the breeze,
There's a place hidden from
The lonely world I long to be...

To wield the land,
To hear the sea
Upon the sands
Of ivory.
To feel your kiss
Fade with the dawn
Beneath the mists,
O, Avalon.

Is it real or a dream,
This breathing isle, this beating heart,
Where the rains melt the sky
In sheets of haze that they part?

I wield the land,
I hear the sea
Upon the sands
Of ivory.
I feel your kiss
Fade with the dawn
Beneath the mists,
O, Avalon.

This part of me,
Secret and strange,
How - through the years -
Are you still unchanged?

When I wake, don't let go,
Haven of light, my only home.
Wait a while, and once more
Hold out your shores for me to roam.

To wield the land,
To hear the sea
Upon the sands
Of ivory.
To feel your kiss
Fade with the dawn
Beneath the mists,
O, Avalon.

To wield the land,
To hear the sea
Upon the sands
Of ivory.
To feel your kiss
Fade with the dawn
Beneath the mists,
O, Avalon...
