Lyrics

Avalon

[Verse 1] Through the miles I cannot escape My fate I know will come in time With my back to the wind I cheat it again With a smile Forged in blood Billowing up The truth I cannot speak But I made it back One last time [Chorus] Avalon It's been way too long I can see in your eyes The fire is all but gone [Verse 2] Tales untold, never to know Unspeakable until the end All these mysteries I'll never speak of again But my love, I hope you believe Now I'm gonna give you every part of me I am home [Chorus] Avalon It's been way too long I can see in your eyes The fire is all but gone But please keep holding on [Bridge] Stay tonight I need your love Don't say goodbye My sweet Avalon [Solo] [Chorus] Oh, Avalon It's been way too long I can see in your eyes The fire is all but gone My sweet Avalon It's been way too long Avalon It's been way too long Avalon
