As the Morrigan Sings

Leannan Shee

Composição de: César Castro-Rosa
I dreamed a strange dream last night, I was singing this 
song
I was playing it with long lost friends in a land of 
mourning
And pale was the sun in the mountains and the vision it 
struck my heart
A pile of heads and the yellow sun shining their eyes

Chorus:
There were heads a' rollin'
There were heads a' rollin'
There were heads a' rollin'
Bodyless heads of fright

There were heads of innocent people that died in the wars
There were heads of patriotic soldiers all covered with 
scars
There were so many heads on that mountain top that I 
couldn't count them all
And as the Morrigan was singing they were cutting some more

Chorus

Me and my band were a part of that strange celebration
And we were playing so loud that the ravens could hear our 
intentions
And as the daylight rose there were heads as fas as the eye
 could see
They were rolling, my love, they were rolling for you and 
for me

Chorus

The people were singing this song with great exhultation
It seemed that some ancient curse had been interrupted
And the crowds were dancing so wildly that I could hear

them bones a' shakin'
And the band was formed by dead people that played so 
vividly

Chorus

The song ended up when a gigantic tornado came
But the vision stood in my eyes as I went away
The visions of men and of women dancing merrily the dance 
of death
And I woke up with the voice of the drummer inside of my 
head
