The Highwayman

Still on a winter's night they say
When the wind is in the trees
When the moon is a ghostly galleon
Tossed upon the cloudy seas
When the road is a ribbon of moonlight
Over the purple moor
A highwayman comes riding, riding, riding...
A highwayman comes riding
Up to the old inn door

Loreena McKennit
Adaptation of old English poem
