Title: Cup Of Wonder

Lyrics Cup Of Wonder

May I make my fond excuses for the late-ness of the hour
But we accept your invitation, and would bring you Beltane's flower
For the May Day is the great day, sung along the old straight track
And those who ancient lines did ley will heed this song that calls them back

Pass the wood and pass the lady
Pass the plane to all who hunger
Pass the wit of ancient wisdom
Pass the Cup of Crimson Wonder

Ask the Green Man where he comes from, ask the cup that fills with red
Ask the old grey standing stones who show the sun his way to bad
Question all as to their ways, and learn the secrets that they hold
Walk the lines of Nature's palm, crosses with silver and with gold

Pass the wood and pass the lady
Pass the plane to all who hunger
Pass the wit of ancient wisdom
Pass the Cup of Crimson Wonder

Join in black December's sadness, lie in August's welcome corn
Stir the cup that's ever filling with the blood of all that's born
But the May Day is the great day, sung along the old straight track
And those who ancient lines did ley will heed this song that calls them back

Pass the wood and pass the lady
Pass the plane to all who hunger
Pass the wit of ancient wisdom
Pass the Cup of Crimson Wonder
