The Temple Of The King

Lyrics

One day in the year of the fox
 Came a time remembered well
 When the strong young man of the rising sun
 Heard the tolling of the great black bell
 One day in the year of the fox
 When the bell began to ring
 Meant the time had come for one to go
 To the temple of the king
 There in the middle of the circle he stands
 Searching, seeking
 With just one touch of his trembling hand
 The answer will be found
 Daylight waits while the old man sings
 "Heaven, help me"
 And then like the rush of a thousand wings
 It shines upon the one
 And the day had just begun
 ♪
 One day in the year of the fox
 Came a time remembered well
 When the strong young man of the rising sun
 Heard the tolling of the great black bell
 One day in the year of the fox
 When the bell began to sing
 It meant the time had come for the one to go
 To the temple of the king
 There in the middle of the people he stands
 Seeing, feeling
 With just a wave of a strong right hand he's gone
 To the temple of the king
 ♪
 Far from the circle at the edge of the world
 He's hoping, wondering
 Thinking back from the stories he's heard
 Of what he's gonna see
 There in middle of the circle it lies
 Heaven, help me
 Then all could see by the shine in his eyes
 The answer had been found
 Back with the people in the circle he stands
 Giving, feeling
 With just one touch of a strong right hand, they know
 Of the temple and the king
