Lyrics
White Stag
In the wood there is no escape
Through the trees the sunlight breaks
run run run like the wind
oh you must run run run like the wind
In the wood the white stag hides
Desperately on his back she rides
run run run like the wind
oh you must run run run like the wind
Chorus 1
He is fleet of foot the snowy hart
And the stars that guide him move apart
As he sails across the sacred astral sea
And Orion, hunter overlord
Watches kindly in accord
Because he knows this journey has to be
Lead
Now the sun is eclipsed and dark
Silence filled by a beating heart
run run run like the wind
oh you must run run run like the wind
chorus 1 (repeat)
For the cloak is around them now
The figure's close yet they know somehow
he will run run run like the wind
yes he will run run run like the wind
Lead (2) end
