about

A Ceri original that we play with Follow The Moon, but have hijacked for Treebeard. The fast tune 'Raven's Reel' is from the same Grenish source as 'Balder And The Mistletoe' on Haze's 'Last Battle' CD. The folk tale of being trapped in fairyland is set in the Welsh hills near Ceri's mum's.

lyrics

Come with me before the night Follow me through the fields
Climb over the rustic stile Feel the stream on your dove white feet

Past the crumbling careworn church down the stoney coffin trail
Follow me through the ancient woods and down into the grove

Hear the luring melodies feel the droning drums
Let them carry your dove white feet Join in with the dance

Down in the Grove where the fair folk meet No one dies and no one sleeps
Down in the Grove where the fair folk meet You'll never leave on your dove white feet

Days, seasons and years go by men are born and men will die
But by my side you'll dance my sweet dance upon your dove white feet

Your clothes will fade and turn to dust your golden charms will turn to rust
But by my side you'll dance my sweet dance upon your dove white feet

Down in the Grove where the fair folk meet No one dies and no one sleeps
Down in the Grove where the fair folk meet You'll never leave on your dove white feet
