Would you believe in a night like this?A night like this, when visions come trueWould you believe in a tale like thisA lay of bliss, we're praising the old loreCome to the blazing fire and
See me in the shadowsSee me in the shadowsSongs I will singOf runes and ringsJust hand me my harpAnd this night turns into mythNothing seems realYou soon will feelThe world we live in is another skald'sDream in the shadowsDream in the shadows
Do you believe there is sense in itIs it truth or mythThey're one in my rhymesNobody knows the meaning behindThe weaver's lineWell nobody else but the Norns canSee through the blazing fires of time andAll things will proceed as the child of the hallowedWill speak to you now
See me in the shadowsSee me in the shadowsSongs I will sing of tribes and kingsThe carrion bird and the hall of the slainNothing seems realYou soon will feelThe world we live in is another skald'sDream in the shadowsDream in the shadows
