Avalon In Mist

Avalon In Mist

Lady Guinevere waits no more, alas,
Candle chandeliers light the primrose path,

oh The Isle of Avalon is in the mist today

Laying waste to blazing bridges, providence unfolds,
The road to wretched ruin paved with sweet perfume & gold,
Excalibur will rust away,
Underneath the waves,
The Dragon dreams in jars of clay,
redeemer of the knaves,
Avalon In mist,

Betrothed, betrayed,
Besieged, belayed,

oh The Isle of Avalon is in the mist today
Excalibur will rust away,
Underneath the waves,
The Dragon dreams in jars of clay,
redeemer of the knaves,
(solo)
oh The Isle of Avalon is in the mist today

Excalibur will rust away,
Underneath the waves,
The Dragon dreams in jars of clay,
redeemer of the knaves,

At tether’s end, we make amends,
Arthur gives up the ghost,
At tether’s end, we make amends,
Pretty maids all in a row,

Avalon In mist,
Avalon In mist,

AVALON IN MIST

Love, betrayal, redemption.
Pretty straight forward, a tune about the Arthurian Legends.
The mist is the distance through time which dims the view.
The fingerstyle guitar solo played on a Godin custom classical is a standout I think.
