A fully acoustic track to complete the first trilogy of tracks from Albion.
lyrics
Walking down to the fayre,
There in search of a servant girl,
Fingers deft, fair of hair,
Spinning by the winter moonlight,
Oh Eilian,
In the meadow of midnight,
Tylwyth Teg in the long grass,
Take a shine to her,
Oh sing and dance the night away,
With Eilian,
Oh sing and dance the night away,
With Eilian,
I heard them sing her name,
As I watched from briars unseen,
Vernal scent of the spring,
Brings the mayday - by night they are coming,
For a last dance with her,
This time would dance her all the way to their world,
Oh Eilian danced her way to the Otherworld,
I heard them sing her name,
Fading with every step,
I waited for her return,
One day would wait forever,
Eilian,
Danced away,
To Annwn,
There to stay,
Met a prince,
She bore a child in spring,
He called the midwife,
To attend his bride,
Oh Eilian...
She will fade away in spring,
She will fade away in spring,

I absolutely LOVE Dark Matter and think it is one of PT's best early tracks that holds up to even their best work in the early 2000s, and this particular live performance is sublime! kilimajaro
