Rhiannon (Live 1981)

Rhiannon rings like a bell through the night

And wouldn't you love to love her

She rules her life like a bird in flight

And who will be her lover?

All your life you've never seen a woman

Taken by the sky

Would you stay if she promised you heaven?

Would you even try?

She is like a cat in the dark

And then she is the darkness

She rules her life like a fine skylark

And when the sky is starless

Once in a million years, a lady like her rises

Oh no, Rhiannon, you cry, but then she's gone

And your life knows no answer

And your life knows no answer

Rhiannon, some ask

Rhiannon, you say

Rhiannon, don't go

Rhiannon

Rhiannon rings like a bell through the night

And wouldn't you love to love her

She rules her life like a bird in flight

Who will be her lover?

All your life you've never seen a woman

Taken by the sky

Would you stay if she promised you heaven?

Would you even try?

She is like a cat in the dark

Then she is the darkness

She rules her life like a fine skylark

And when the sky is starless

Once in a million years, a lady like her rises

Oh no, Rhiannon, you cry, but then she's gone

And your life knows no answer

Your life knows no answer

She rings like a bell through the night

Wouldn't you love to love her?

She rules her life like a bird in flight

Who will be her lover?

All your life you've never seen a woman taken by the sky

Would you stay if she promised you heaven?

Would you even try?

Would you even try?

Dreams unwind, love's a state of mind

Now you know that your dreams unwind

Your love's a state of mind

I know you know that your dreams unwind

And love is hard to find

I know

Dreams unwind and still it's hard to find

I know

Dreams unwind and love is hard to find

Dreams unwind, it's still a state of mind

Take me like a wind chime, take me with the sky

Take me like a wind chime, with the sky
