lyrics

dawn peeps over the highlands
on the grass graze flocks of sheep
but on the hills are towers.
and the shadows they cast are deep.

and those in the towers long for the night.
they lurk in the towers and wait for the night.
deep inside the towers, where it is ever night.

noon is bright on the highlands
sheep bleat at the sun
but shadows of towers deepen
for soon the day is done.

and those in the towers long for the night.
they lurk in the towers and wait for the night.
deep inside the towers, where it is ever night.

dusk creeps over the highlands
the sheep they run for home
the last of the light is fading
now the coming of the gloom.

and those in the towers long for the night.
they lurk in the towers and wait for the night.
deep inside the towers, where it is ever night.

the highlands are drenched in darkness
the mores glimmer under moon
the stars are cold and distant
the morning does not come soon.

and those in the towers long for the night.
they lurk in the towers and wait for the night.
deep inside the towers, where it is ever night.

a cold dark rest for their final remains
a place on high for their bones washed by rains
the sins of their life will linger long after death
with the last hope
with a final breath

and those in the towers long for the night.
they lurk in the towers and wait for the night.
deep inside the towers, where it is ever night.
