Avalon

from Shade of the Trees

Don't wanna disappoint
Don't wanna freak you out
Don't wanna resurrect all your buried doubt
But if you wanna know
Where we're going to
Avalon, Avalon

here is a distant shore
There is an apple tree
There is a rocky cliff
Over a stormy sea
There is fertile ground
There you can bury me
Avalon, Avalon

Oh we must be near
Over the next wave's crest
You see the greenest greens
Of the Isle of Blessed
I believe it is, though it may not be
Avalon, Avalon

Sister, leave me here to breathe my final breath
I leave you facing life in the face of death
There is no deeper truth
There is no truer rest
Avalon, Avalon
