about

A lighter, more acoustic version of this song I wrote for an SCA bards compilation a couple years ago entitled "For the Dream". This also appeared on one of our Blibbering Humdinger's CDs. Since many of my Bardic audiences aren't interested in the wizard rock stuff and will never buy that CD, I present this version for your enjoyment. The song was inspired by Lord Cullen, Chieftain of Bard's Haven. It's about all the beautiful memories we've all created together over the years at the Pennsic War.

lyrics

Each time we gather, and journey down that road
and return to that place we call home
Greet one another as if we’d never gone
However far we roam
See how the trees have grown

Holding on to our memories
Holding on to our lasting dream
Holding on to the times when we can be
In the place where we belong
To the fire, the folk and the song

Sharing moments enchanted by a song
Worries of the world slip away
Forming friendships to last a whole life long
Bringing times past to present day
Here we are, here our hearts will stay

Even though I've heard the story behind the music, there's always been something just a bit haunting and sad about this song. It's been one of my favorites since the first time I heard it. fenrirchick
