Vanishing Song
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The timber swayed in the heavens
The waters rest, degrading smoke
Oh oh oh
A vanishing song
Oh oh oh
A vanishing song
A vanishing song
The drumbeat playing
The warm wind sing
And we would dance in time
Oh oh oh
A vanishing song
Oh oh oh
A vanishing song
Oh oh oh
A vanishing song
A vanishing life
The hunt was just
And battles were few
This was the life we knew
Oh oh oh
A vanishing song
Oh oh oh
A vanishing song
Oh oh oh
A vanishing song
A vanishing life
