angelo branduardi – the enchanted lake lyrics
angelo branduardi
“fables and fantasies”
the enchanted lake
close by jacob’s fountain
starts the strange tale i will tell
where fair madelaine met an enchanter
who addressed her in a tongue few men know well
said he all you wish
from this hour is yours for asking
tell me all your desire
for there’s no dream i can’t fulfill it
sir be on your way i’ve no time for your games
not for you do i wait here but for another
he will come for me and bring me a velvet gown
and we’ll go hand in hand to london town
you’re a fool if you think you won’t be mine
said the enchanter to fair madelaine
and yet you are young so i forgive you
if you’d lived my thousand years you’d play
once more did he ask
for a wish from her heart
better believe now or spells
i will use to make you mine
you’d make a fine tree that blossomed every springtime
shade me in the summer and be my firewood in winter
this has gone to far
cried out the young maid
now i see you for a liar
full of your own wind
all this talk of spells
what nonsense a thousand years
when i see your face to be younger yet than mine
so the enchanter spun him circles three
and turned her with a spell to a calm white lake
from the top of a tower of ivory
forever he gazes on her face
so the enchanter spun him circles three
and turned her with a spell to a calm white lake
from the top of a tower of ivory
forever he loves fair madelaine’s face…
