Oldfield Sally - Midsummer Night's Happening lyrics

Sunlight falling bright over garden walls Moonlight showers gold where living water falls Orange groves are bursting out into green leaves of moonlight Candle like lawns sweep down to the river of turquoise Fountains of golden light burst in quavers that float among the stars The golden gates are open wide for the people all over the land A thousand chandeliers in my lady's chamber My lord comes swaying through the hall with a goblet of shining amber They all minuet to a string quartet and the Marquis's daughter shall sing Come to the Ball my love, sip sweet ambrosia Trip in the forest Titania my love Come to the Ball my love, sip sweet ambrosia Trip in the forest Titania my love Would you like brandy wine? Shall we go now and dine? We'll do the merry minuet till the yellow moon has set We shall dance through the midsummer night Come my pretty puck and squeeze this magic flower On the eyes of lovers in this midnight hour Tis a flower of wonder tis a magic seed When they shall awake lay heaven at their feet Dance through the midsummer night Would you like brandy wine? Shall we go now and dine? We'll do the merry minuet till the yellow moon has set We shall dance through the midsummer night Come my pretty puck and squeeze this magic flower On the eyes of lovers in this midnight hour Tis a flower of wonder tis a magic seed When they shall awake lay heaven at their feet Dance through the midsummer night Come to the Ball my love, sip sweet ambrosia Trip in the forest Titania my love Come to the Ball my love, sip sweet ambrosia Trip in the forest Titania my love Would you like brandy wine? Shall we go now and dine? We'll do the merry minuet till the yellow moon has set We shall dance through the midsummer night [Right Channel] Sunlight falling bright over village garden walls Moonlight showers gold where water falls People walk in splendour under trees hung in starlight Candlelight lawns sweep down to the river that ripple on pebbles of turquoise Fountains of golden light burst in quavers among the stars Tables are laid with fruits of the vine and cedar from Samarkand A thousand dancing chandeliers shine in my lady's chamber My lord comes swaying through the halls with a goblet of amber Nectar and brandy, wine and mead come flowing in shimmering springs Gentle maidens walking in the garden They're courted by the knights from the palace of love They're all dressed in white with flowers of palest colour They're all singing songs to the yellow moon above Yes I would Sir Yes I would Sir We'll do the merry minuet The yellow moon has set in the midsummer night Come my pretty Oberon trip, trip Come and sing a summer song trip, trip I know a bank where the cowslips trip Whereon the wild thyme sits trip, trip Dance through the midsummer night Yes I would Sir Yes I would Sir We'll do the merry minuet The yellow moon has set in the midsummer night Come my pretty Oberon trip, trip Come and sing a summer song trip, trip I know a bank where the cowslips trip Whereon the wild thyme sits trip, trip Dance through the midsummer night Gentle maidens walking in the garden They're courted by the knights from the palace of love They're all dressed in white with flowers of palest colour They're all singing songs to the yellow moon above Yes I would Sir Yes I would Sir We'll do the merry minuet The yellow moon has set in the midsummer night
