Edward the Confessor's Dream

From Mat Vašíček’s album „Salt Lake“, production by Thomas de Balder, guest artists Ivana Morysová and Louise Hallgren. For more information visit www.matmusic.cz.

Two monks came to me the other night
And said God had set on us evil spirits
"God'll have no mercy?" said I.
"Oh, he will when a tree cleft in two
By a lightning stroke
Should grow back together on its own accord."

Are we past the time of mending trees?
Is now the era of big lightning strokes?
Is it pointless to endeavor?
For no tree cleft in two by a lightning stroke
Will grow back together on its own accord.

A tree cleft in two
By a lightning stroke
Will never grow back,
Will never grow...

Two monks came to me the other night
They said our sins made God set on us
Evil spirits that will never go
They will never leave
They will never go
On their own

Accord....
