The Highwayman's Tale

The wind was a torrent of darkness among the gusty trees.
The moon was a ghostly galleon tossed upon cloudy seas.
The road was a ribbon of moonlight over the purple moor,
And the highwayman came riding-
Riding- riding-
The highwayman came riding, up to the old inn-door.

The story of the doomed love between a thieving highwayman, and an innkeepers daughter.

Inspired and based on the poem The Highwayman by Alfred Noyes.
