Curved Air - Elfin Boy lyrics

Called to you at night, called to you each day, till the voice of my mind grew weary Hoping you'd hear my voice as clear as the visions of you I could see A full Moon rose on a night of fear, I called and prayed you'd hear me A gypsy Knight you sprang from the woods, brought me to sanctuary here And then the curly-haired elfin boy smiled with his eyes like a child Graceful his fingers they play on the strings, gentle the song that he sings You tell me to rest then, prince though you be, you ask me what you can do Food you bring me and drink and clothes but I should be giving to you What have I to give but my songs and my love, my dreams are yours to share Give you myself and part of my world for both of us offer one prayer Bells soft ring in the breeze from the woods the last dying breath of a night Sleepy birds bringing their trembling warning soon it will be daylight Come, wake gentle elfin boy, let love fall once more, and then Teach me your song for me to take to sing your dreams over again And then the curly-haired elfin boy smiled with his eyes like a child Graceful his fingers they play on the strings, gentle the song that he sings
