Song of the Day, 26 June 2006

[Bob Schroeck]

Wind across Salisbury plain
Ancient stones stand in the rain
Silhouettes against the stormy night
I walk in a counter spiral
Outside of this sunless dial
Waiting, hoping, watching for a sign
I see shadows form and disappear in shades of grey
The flicker of a thousand minds
Voices are calling from another time and place
The name that echoes here is mine
Circle of stone
I step inside
Calling through the window of time
Oh, circle of stone
Circle of stone
It starts to spin
No beginning and no end
Oh, circle of stone
As I turn the storm above me grows away
To reveal a dome of stars
The milky way seems to wink at me as if to say,
"We know exactly where you are"
Circle of stone
It turns inside
Falling through the window of time
Oh, circle of stone
Circle of stone
Forever spins
No beginning and no end
Oh, circle of stone
Rising to the highest plane
Nothing's left undone
In the universal plan
All things are one
Circle of stone
It turns inside
I reach back through the window of time
Oh, circle of stone
Circle of stone
Forever spins
No beginning and no end
Oh, circle of stone
Oh, circle of stone
Wind across Salisbury plain
Ancient stones stand in the rain
Silhouettes against the stormy sky
I walk in a clockwise spiral
Step out of this sunless dial
Back into the darkness of the night
Back into the darkness of the night
