Cloak of Feathers

Ami    G     Ami 
   Owl at my window, 
Ami        G        Ami 
   Calling from the tree, 
  Ami      G            Ami      Emi 
I hear our voice in the cool moonlight, 
       Ami        G         Emi 
Do you sing those words for me? 
 
Ami        G        Ami 
To me they sound so empty, 
 
Ami        G        Ami 
Why do you sound so sad? 
       Ami     G      Ami           Emi 
As you tell me of the things you've seen, 
        Ami       G        Emi 
And the home that you once had. 
 
Chorus 1: 
Ami           G                Ami 
   Beyond the mist of myth and legend 
     G                  Emi 
In a place not far from here, 
            Ami           G 
Beneath the stones on the hill, 
                  Ami 
I want to see you land, 
      G              Ami        Emi 
And I wonder if I’ll ever, understand. 
 
The owl she told me, 
Of her home within the hill. 
Of the wonder, and the magic land, 
That lies within there still. 
 
But a curse it follows lifetimes, 
And it took away her skin, 
For the words of a wicked man, 
Made birds of her kin. 
 
Owl of the nighttime, 
Owl of the sky. 
Spread now your ghost-white wings, 
And on your back I’ll fly 
 
Over the forest, 
To the Hollow Hill of Stones, 
Land there within the ring, 
And call for your home. 
 
Chorus 2: 
 
Beyond the mist of myth and legend 
In a place not far from here, 
Beneath the stones on the hill, 
I want to see you home, 
Give me a Cloak of Feathers so I'll never be alone. 
 
Emi 
And the mists they part as through we fly 
In my Cloak of Feathers, 
The owl and I. 
 
Emi 
Birds fill the trees in this wonderland, 
And an ancient curse is broken, 
By the love of a mortal man. 
 
Ami  G         Ami   Emi 
Lady spin your circle bright, 
Ami        G      Ami      G 
weave your web of dark and light 
Ami    G    Ami      Emi 
Earth, Air, fire and Water 
Ami  G     Ami 
Bind us as one. (rep.)
