Songtext Storyteller's night The Seer

Storyteller's night

He came from far behind the hills
All through the land he left his trace
With beggar's shoes a scarecrow's coat
With shadows in a hollow face
People came from far and near
To sit there in the candlelight
To be taken to another world
In the storyteller's night
And he made them laugh
And he made them shiver
He filled their eyes with naked fear
And he entered dreams and fantasies
With all the tales from far and near

Oooh the man was telling tales
From the north from the south from the east and from the west
Oooh the man was telling tales
From the north from the south from the east and from the west
From the north
And from the south
From the east
And from the west

Children took their mothers' hands
They didn't dare to make a noise
Something uncanny about this man
Something mysterious in his voice
And he made them laugh
And he made them shiver
He filled their eyes with naked fear
And he entered dreams and fantasies
With all the tales from far and near
With all the tales from far and near

Oooh...

Oooh...
