"The Dream" (Filk of "These Dreams"  by Heart)

Light a little candle
Come and follow me
The hall is up ahead
Underneath the trees
Surcote, of velvet
white linen chemise
We're garbed up and ready
for this SCA feast
Darkness interrupted by
the candle-lit hall
We place our plates on tables
warm greetings from all
Music starts playing
A lord extends a hand
We dance among nobles
From anywhen lands

The Dream goes on before my eyes
Every second of the night I live another life
The Dream inspires my secret smiles
Every moment I'm at work, I love the SCA

Is it cloak n dagger
Should it be spring or fall
I simply fill my cup
with home made cordial
Weaker in my eyesight
The candle in my grip
And words that make a madrigal
Are falling from my lips

The Dream goes on before my eyes
Every second of the night I live another life
The Dream inspires my secret smiles
Every moment of the day, I love the SCA

There's something great here
I can't resist!
I need to hide away
from the mundane
Theres something great here
I can't resist!
It's more than history
Or just a game we play
More than A&S
Or Heavy melee
Friendship - more than friendship,
The feeling I belong
It's more than I could ever
capture in a song

The Dream goes on when I close my eyes
Every second of the night I live another life
The Dream inspires my secret smiles
Every moment of the day, I love the SCA

The Dream goes on when I close my eyes
Every second of the night I live another life
The Dream inspires my secret smiles
Every moment of the day, I love the SCA



I know. I know.

Y'know, I was already to groan and pass this by, but something made me click the YouTube link and follow along and... by gods, you make it hard for an old bat to be cynical, you know.

Well done indeed.

(Won't stop me posting the filk I'm working on, though...)
