Recorded at their home studio in the Scottish Highlands.

lyrics

Lead you to the meadow where the wind blows the corn ears
Dance with me gaily 'till the dawn of the day
Look not behind you, forever in my eyes
Leave her without you and here you will stay

Care not for your family, for they will not miss you
Hope note for chattels for here you'll not need
Dance with me always and ever my partner
Spinning and dancing the turn of the wheel

Care not for your daughter and seek not your wife
Place your hands in mine and ever live my life

For thanking me kindly I'll lead you a-dancing
For the gift of a penny I'll take you away
In the land of the court time it passes so slowly
One kiss from me my lord and here you will stay

You'll care not for your woman, my love you'll not miss her
Think not of your children, their memories will pass
In the circle of stones where the magick's about us
Barefoot and dancing alone in the grass

Care not for your daughter and seek not your wife
Place your hands in mine and ever live my life

Close the west window 'fore nightfall draws near
A pail on the doorstep, an iron key near
A piece from the loaf and the salt on the floor
For the Queen of the Circle she'll soon dance once more

Lead you to the meadow where the wind blows the corn ears
Dance with me gaily 'till the dawn of the day
Look not behind you, forever in my eyes
Leave her without you and here you will stay
