about

lyrics

On a lonely night in a Franken town
Was my life forever changed
By a twinkling eye as I played my songs
For the ear of my Ivy

Did the weeks and months from that night give way
And the hours on the phone
How the thrust of fate led me to the day
I took the hand of my Ivy

Then I brought her up to the castle wall
Where we sat under a tree
A more perfect moment I cannot recall
In the hold of my Ivy

All ye friends and strangers here be gathered round
By the stage and down the halls
As we raise our glasses to the fortune found
I draw a pull for my Ivy

Now I run the miles of this ragged road
With my vision ever clear
Of the fairest lady back on Hanse shores
See my sweet little Ivy

Oh the troubles of the day, how they burn the light away
And the dark come a-withering through
Gives her fire to light the night, keep the calm and bring the right
Makes me strong and brave anew

Though I’m blessed to walk with so many good friends
None could love me more than she
Such a lucky man have I now become
To guard the heart of my Ivy
