Lyrics
There?s a lovely cottage in the woods beyond the north edge of town,
and the pathway to its open door is welcoming and wide.
There?s a lovely cottage in the woods beyond the north edge of town,
and the pathway to its open door is welcoming and wide.
La la la...
it?s welcoming and wide.
A warming fire and dancing flames are always at the hearth,
and a sturdy chair sits waiting for you ?til your next return.
A warming fire and dancing flames are always at the hearth,
and a sturdy chair sits waiting for you ?til your next return.
La la la ...
until your next return.
And the crone that tends the mantle wears Sofia?s vests of love,
and she sets the table with a banquet for the hungry hearts.
The crone that tends the mantle wears Sofia?s vests of love,
and she sets the table with a banquet for the hungry hearts.
La la la ...
it?s for the hungry hearts.
There?s a wounded priest a soldier and a maiden at this feast,
a mother with her crying children?all are welcome here.
There?s a troubador a sailor and a princess and a theif,
and a father with his starving childdren?all are welcome here.
La la la ...
all are welcome here.
There?s a lovely cottage in the woods beyond the north edge of town,
and the pathway to its open door is welcoming and wide.
There?s a lovely cottage in the woods beyond the north edge of town,
and the pathway to its open door is welcoming and wide.
