Rick Wakeman - The Forest Lyrics

Send "The Forest" ringtone to your cell

Brownish hue dictates my eye no color hides their fear

Flowers faded dull and cold now bleached by atmosphere

Creatures twisting under trees huge monsters soaked with rage

Hidden deep below our earth a frightening bygone age

Their shepherd came now long extinct a huge primeval man

The three men filled with disbelief just turned as one and ran

Dumb with astonishment and amazement

Which bordered on stupefaction they fled the forest

Instinctively they made towards the lidenbrook sea

Discovering a rusty dagger on the beach

And the carved initials of the explorer

Before them on a slab of granite

They realized that they were once again treading

The route of arne saknussemm

Following a short sea journey around a cape

They came ashore where a dark tunnel plunged deep into rock

And venturing down their progress was halted by a piece of rock

Blocking their way

After deciding to blow their way through and setting the charge

They put out to sea for safety with the explosion

The rocks before them opened like a curtain

And a bottomless pit appeared in the shore

The explosion had caused an earthquake

The abyss had opened up and the sea was pouring into it

Down and down they plunged into the huge gallery

But on regaining their senses found their raft rising at tremendous speed

Trapped in the shaft of an active volcano

They rose through the ages of man

To be finally expelled out on a mountain side

Riddled with tiny lava streams

Their journey was completed and they found themselves 3000 miles

From their original starting point in iceland

They had entered by one volcano and they had come out by another

With the blue mountains of calabria in the east they

Walked away from the mountain that had returned them

The frightening mount etna
