Al Jarreau - Lock All the Gates lyrics

By snowy fields and lanes she keeps the waiting In candlelight the sacred alter shines He s**led the young lambs upon his knee Giving the weary sleep in peace He read the stars inside her dream But he was blind Of winter's love for spring, she kept the vision Sweet chariots aflame against the sky He played on the harp sweet melody Children and emperors came to see He drove the dragons into the nights But he was blind So lock all the gates and bolt the chamber door Because nobody leaves or enters anymore Now lock all the gates and bolt the chamber door Would you lock all the gates and the chamber Come, come Somebody come and lock all the gates and bolt the chamber Cause nobody leaves or enters anymore By snowy fields and lanes she keeps the waiting In candlelight the sacred alter shines He s**led the young lambs upon his knee He bid the weary sleep in peace He read the stars inside her dream But he was blind, he was blind
