Scythia - Bear Claw Tavern

I' m heading away and I wont be back for a very long time Hide your woes, show your smile and pour my cup of wine On the morrow i set to sea and know not when I'll be back So come my friends and drink with me until the day is black Though the rain is pouring down my spirits are still high Reckoning day is fast upon but still I've got to try I walk abreast with friends of old through the streets at night A tavern we spy not too far lit by lantern light 'Tis the place where the hearth's ablaze The fire warms your bones Forget your troubles and earthly woes 'Tis your second home Tavern known through the ages fill your cup at the Bear Claw Minstrels sing of heroes and legends tell your tale at the Bear Claw Brigands and bandits, captains and sailors all cross paths at the Bear Claw Fast we approach with lingering hope this place of cobble and straw Where a placard hung of polished brass, emblem of a bear claw Open door that revealed a festive scene within Jolly sailors, merchants, wenches packed it to the brim Once inside we waste no time kicking off the night Seven years I may be gone, sailing nay respite But this place was made for legendary time Here I dance with the blackened beast, get me in the morning! 'Tis the place where the hearth's ablaze The fire warms your bones Forget your troubles and earthly woes 'Tis your second home Tavern known through the ages fill your cup at the Bear Claw Minstrels sing of heroes and legends tell your tale at the Bear Claw Brigands and bandits, captains and sailors all cross paths at the Bear Claw
