I dreamt a palace in the sky   It's silver doors were open wide   And though I longed to see within   I did not dare to go inside      For there were ravens circling all around   Ravens settling darkly to the ground   Staring wishing me away   'Til at last they saw I was not staying      I dreamt of children in a field   Their silver voices filled the sky   And though I longed to dance and play   I did not dare to even try      For there were ravens circling all around   Ravens screaming 'til the joy was drowned   Laughing as they beat their wings   'Til the children had to cease their singing      I dreamt a lover by a lake   His silver arms were open wide   And though i thought my heart would break   I did not sit down by his side      For there were ravens circling in the air   Ravens casting shadows on his hair   Staring down from up above   Who are they to sit and judge our loving
