"The Twisted Oak" lyrics - BLACKMORE'S NIGHT

The twisted oak has stories to tell
And there is nobody listening but me but it's just as well
Here I'm always hoping to find
The peace of mind I've left behind

I find myself alone in the wood
Where only forest fairies and spirits understood
I lose myself hoping to find
The peace of mind I've left behind

Somewhere lost in a web of lies
The twilight whispers goodbye

Night was falling all around
And though the dawn was breaking, no pieces could be found
It's there I go, hoping to find
The peace of mind I've left behind

Somewhere lost in a web of lies
The twilight whispers goodbye

Oh, the crickets sing their song
Singing to the moon and stars as I sing along
We sing together hoping to find
The peace of mind I've left behind

The twisted oak has stories to tell
And there is nobody listening but me but it's just as well
Here I'm always hoping to find
The peace of mind I've left behind
My peace of mind I've left behind
