Playing Rapunzel - Uffington Hill lyrics

I rode a white horse over Uffington Hill And the moon lit the valley below Wolves ran ahead of me, scenting the prey I followed their tracks through the snow The circle of seasons was turning again Winter would soon lose its hold The moonlight appeals to me, snow has its charms My kind do not feel the cold I rode a white horse over Uffington Hill And the sun was still gilding the land Snowlight was bleeding across from the sea I met it with fire in my hand The circle of seasons was turning again For all that the spring had come late The quickening air held a promise and more But my kind are willing to wait I rode a white horse over Uffington Hill And the valley was festival-dressed Afternoon meadows all rich with their fruit Regaled me with their best Queen Summer had stepped from her throne As the circle of seasons was spinning once more Everything changes, everything dies, But my kind go on as before I rode a white horse over Uffington Hill And seemed like a wraith in the mist Frost cracking underfoot, everything shone Like the eyes of the bird on my wrist I let fly the falcon to summon the cold Wolves came to run by my side And the circle of seasons does just as it ought, My kind continue to ride Continue to ride Continue to ride O-oh Continue to ride
