Songtext On a storyteller's night Magnum

On a storyteller's night

There's a stormlamp on the table
Throwing shadows to the gable
And you swallow if your able
On a storyteller's night

From the poorhouse chimes indifferent
Seven towers seven sisters
Every blackheart walks the distance
On a storyteller's night

Try to sleep on your pillow and dream
Sleep in God's children to keep
Though we all lose track of time
Disappears like faded lines

Keep your night light burning
I'll come through the wind and rain
Keep your night light burning
I'll be with you once again

There's a chill wind at your back door
And the fire cracks on the damp floor
You hear footsteps but you're not sure
On a storyteller's night

See the night sky super nova
Chase the cold moon passing over
Start the dragon's fire to smoulder
On a storyteller's night
