Hawkwind Lyric Book Elric The Enchanter The song he sang was surfaces Nothing deeper than a child knows He could sing sand into pearls So the saying goes Some said he was a sorcerer Or a warrior chief But he was the stealer of souls The lord of Chaos reaps And he's frozen in a time trap Slowly losing power And he's frightened if he makes a move The dream will soon turn sour Sprawling in a Ruby Throne Head cupped in his hands The lord of dragons, Elric's thoughts Were of quests to far off lands A black sword was at his side Murmuring in its scabbard cold Waiting for the moment to arrive To drink the very essence of soul He did not know that the sword he'd hold Would turn his priceless empire into fool's gold The truth, the shadow of the sword will hide Til it's too late, a traitor at his side And as he gazes from his ruby throne He's growing restless of the life he's sown To get away, embark on a quest And put his powers of sorcery to the test The drugs he takes to keep himself awake lose their effect, he can no longer wait To find the sword and gain more power And make his move before the dream turns sour __________________________________________________________________________ |
