Listen & view Ghostfire - The Last Steampunk Waltz lyrics & tabs

Originally named 'Calibernus', this song is about the sword Excalibur and her inexorable link to the earth and forces of nature, as discussed in the legends of King Arthur. It was renamed in honour of steampunks from across the UK who got up and waltzed so finely to it at last year's Asylum event.
Legends spoken shall never fail
Every deed as hard as nails
She never speaks, she never smiles
The journey's end of a thousand miles
Rings on her fingers and bells on her toes
Music to haunt us she knows
As she goes
Many years in a bed of rock
Too many turns of the season's clock
She never smiles, she never speaks
The awful silence grows long and deep
Ghost light and candlelight show her the way
Onwards the dawn of the day
As they say
Stay with her, lay with her, carry her high
Swear an allegiance to things you can't hide
She will find us again
She will bind us again
Lies won't blind us again
Heavens bow to her reign
Once again
Into her arms below the ground
Eternity never made a sound
She never speaks, she never smiles
The journey ends in a thousand trials
Rings on her fingers and bells on her toes
Devils and demons alive alive-o
Follow us close as we go
As we know
