Caravan - Winter Wine

Winter Wine How you're always flowing, blowing in my mind Like a stream, these magic waters move me to a dream Of travelling with you, drifting carefree, dropping downward through fresh grasses Bubbles merrily as it passes, never knowing where you're going Carry me with you, carry me with you Be conjured up in a midnight dream, ancient castles dark As wandering minstrels play tunes of yesterday When dragons roamed the land, knights in armour gold Charged on horseback bold The maids were saved, the dragons slayed Sail scene, sea green - sailing forward to a new land Treasure waits, paradise gates, for the taking, can't start waiting All you need, but take heed, remember it pays to pay the sandman well Make no fuss, for you must - in stardust, he puts all the colours in your dreams Bells chime three times, naked dancers enter slowly Smoky room, scented gloom, audience eating, fat men drinking Candles burn, a dull red light illuminates the breasts of four young girls Dancing, prancing, provoking - dreams are always ending far too soon Life's too short to be sad, wishing things you'll never have You're better off not dreaming of the things to come Dreams are always ending far too soon Sounds of a distant melody, once played, lost from memory Funny how it's clearer now, you're close to me We'll be together all the time
