Alderley Edge Songtext
von Cloven Hoof

Sit very still you can hear distant marching
Over on Alderley hill
Half-close your eyes and imagine procession
Drums beating on feel a chill

Legend foretold of a king and his army
Honour to rise on the day
England has need in it′s greatest of peril
Fire frost is lost so they say

Someone turned the sun around
Someone pulled the curtain down

No knights in Avalon
They were here but now they're gone
No knights in Avalon
They were here but now they′re gone

No knights in Avalon
They were here but now they're gone
No knights in Avalon
They were here but now they're gone


Here as a boy I remember a wizard
Tapped on the rock made a sign
The earth moved a door stood and gates opened slowly
Gemstones sparkled and shined

Gathered within each room now as a treasure
But the greatest of all in my mind
The army eternal who sleep silent waiting
Seek them but you′ll never find

Someone called the moon to ground
Someone stilled the trumpet sound

No knights in Avalon
They were here but now they′re gone
No knights in Avalon
They were here but now they're gone

No knights in Avalon
They were here but now they′re gone
No knights in Avalon
They were here but now they're gone

Witches in the fire glow
Twisting shadows moving too and fro
Can′t believe your eyes
Nightmare creatures they are true


Feeling sorry but you're scared
Should′ve stopped them there, but no one dared
Morrigan is here
Now her finger points at you

Holy rider, can't you find a, spell that can, take me home?

Holy rider (Holy rider, I need you)
Can't you find a (Please come take me)
Spell that can
Take me home?
