In the medieval night 'twas love's design And the sky was open Like a valentine All the lacy lights Where wishes fall And like shakespeare's child I wished on them all
Ahh to be your destiny Was all that I pursued I could see the sights From the lofty heights But my heart obscured the view
I was looking for you Looking for you What could I do I was looking for you
Along the black river The ambassador jewels And you were reflected In all that I saw In the towers of gold In the wheel and wing Gripping my senses Like an ancient claim
Many is the time I knelt in the light Appealing to all that I know Guide my eyes and steps That I may find love true
Refrain
Come on darlin' All that hearts desire Was written before us In the medieval fire It was love's design In the glittering stars Like shakespeare's child To be where you are
From the portobello road To the port of marseilles Where the dervish turns Where the wild goats play
