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
