about

This is about the amazing adventurous feelings that reading Tolkien books give me. A lot of these lyrics are direct quotes from the books of which I particularly loved the flavorful wordings. After reading them, I highly recommend The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings, and even The Silmarillion. The very beginning of the latter is my favorite thing I've ever read in a book.

lyrics

If you take my meaning, I wanna run on with the rivers
If you understand me, I wanna roll on with the hills
I wanna tell my stories when I'm back across the Brandywine
Whenever I'm with you, it's like being at home and on a holiday at the same time.

I wanna do a good thing, stick a sword in something evil
Simple jests and dances, barefoot in golden grass
Fall asleep on singing branches, feel the forest sigh
One day I'm gonna meet you, I'll keep searchin' through the pages in the meantime.

And where my skirts may flow, I'll follow
On feet as light as linden-leaves

And over the land my feet shall fly, chasing the rising sun and sky
And from me tears of love shall spring, and time I'll defy, if you take my meaning.

I wanna see a blessed land, all rose-stained in the sunset
Tell someone I love him in a gentle tongue of old
Let the years be measured by the wheeling stars above us
Heed no nightly noises, 'cause nothin's gonna touch us save the moonlight.

The Great Creator touched my heart now
"Behold your music, little one"

And over the land my feet did fly, chasing the rising sun and sky
And from me tears of love did spring, and time I defied, if you take my meaning.
