When I was out walking at five am
The loveliest sight I did see
The angels of night, the northern lights
Came down and were dancing with me.
—
A green circle round and then up and down
Like a mist that enveloped me.
They rose here and there
Like wisps in the air
Up and down all around me.
—
It happened again later one night
I was still up it’s hard to believe.
The angels of night, the northern lights
Came down right through the trees.
—
A green circle round and then up and down.
Like a mist that enveloped me.
They rose here and there
Like wisps in the air
Up and down all around me.
—
So next time you’re up morning or night
Don’t forget to look at the skies
The angels of night, the northern lights
May come down and bedazzle your eyes…
