Asia - Valkyrie Lyrics






Valkyrie....
Valkyrie....

Like a mist, through the trees
Across the battlefield
She is borne upon the breeze
She's drawn to where I kneel
There is no doubt
She comes for me

Peace at last, fade to grey
My war is over now
This, the price I gladly pay
Surrender to her light
It shines for love and dignity

Valkyrie....
Valkyrie....

See the path ahead of me
A sacred gilded throne
The one true house that I call home
The place I will be known
Where I belong, carry me

Valkyrie....
Valkyrie....
Valkyrie....
Valkyrie....

Now that it's all over and done
We are as one, now I see
One blazing fire, endless desire
Just stay with me, Valkyrie

Valkyrie....
Valkyrie....
Valkyrie....
Valkyrie....
Valkyrie....
Valkyrie....

  3. D.... A....

    Summer of '82, got my drivers license and Asia was on the radio constantly. I bought the sheet music and figured out the keyboard parts for that album. "Here comes the felling" was the first solo I ever learned how to pick up by ear. Wow! In 1990, I awoke in my new apartment in Tampa Bay and heard "Days like these" on 95YNF. His voice and Asia's music were always a part of the soundtrack of my life. (Sigh), someday we'll all turn the page. I hate getting old.

    супер просто моя любимая команда из прогрессив рока

    All John's songs become old friends the more you listen to them. He was such a virtuoso performer and creator of imagery, emotion, courage and some great music over his life!

  15. d.... ....

    John's voice was golden, but in these videos the lip sync is lacking.

    d.... ....

    Yes ... He wasn't intense, at all. All in all a poor video. They needed Wayne Isham.

  16. A.... C....

    So glad I saw them live twice

  17. J.... A....

    Wauuu....muy buena. Exelente.

  18. L.... J....

    I remember your concert in Krakow 🎸🤘You will never be forgotten John 🌎

  19. j.... ....

    John Wetton Lamentablemente se nos ha ido. La música que él compuso y cantó no puede ser mejorada porque ya no está entre nosotros, por lo que es perfecta. Te extrañamos John Wetton.
    John Wetton unfortunately has gone. the music he composed and sung cant be improved by him, so it is perfect. We Miss You John Wetton

  20. t.... 8....

    Anyone know the background spoken vocal at the end of the song?

  42. a.... ....

    Love it!!!!

  43. b.... ....

    great voice, catchy song, but terrible, terrible clip. what were they thinking?!

  44. L.... G....

    I like Asia from time to time... do have a few staples on my iPod.... but this song sounds like they're dialing it in...... It just seems like they have no energy left.

  45. i.... ....

    JW. You're on your sacred gilded throne..Where you belong!!!

  46. n.... s....

    john wettonがこの曲名をアルバム名にしたかったのは良くわかります。深く心に沁みる美しい曲です。

  47. M.... N....

    FLY NOT FRY?

  48. a.... r....

    One of the greatest rock voices ever. Thanks J.W.

  49. M.... F....

    Não se fazem bandas como as de antigamente. ASIA é demais.

  50. C.... F....

    Do you think that he knew that he was sick at this time? His type of cancer goes on for a long time. God, I hope that he was able to come to terms with it. Bless him.

    C.... F....

    Don't think so. But the lyrics are erie, in hindsight.

    C.... F....

    Valkyrie is a Norse god, usually portrayed as a woman, who would come to warriors on the battlefield to claim then to death. Sometimes Valkyrie would play tricks on the warriors. I think he had already been battling cancer up to this song and there was no more treatments for him.

  51. C.... F....

    He will always be in my heart! Love john wetton

  52. R.... D....

    Gravitas was a descent album. None of the songs were really great on it. It is too bad Steve Howe didn't stick for one more album. When they reformed they hit the nail on the head when they said if it wasn't the four originals it was missing something.

    R.... D....

    Title track is fantastic ... Better than this. It's a real rocker .. - They went with the wrong first track.

  53. J.... B....

    This song is a fitting epitaph to John Whetton because I wrote them off when he left in 1991. Their 1982 release was the first cassette that ever bought and I still have it today....wish my life hadn't been so busy to have not known the original members got back together a mere decade ago

  54. R.... ....

    John Wetton started and found Asia and he closed the door forever

  55. D.... S....

    They just don't make music like this anymore.. Great band.

  56. M.... G....

    This is the worst music video ever

    M.... G....

    I don't know about that but it may be their worst. I'll take the crazy clip for Don't Cry, over this, every day.

  57. M.... L....

    She comes to where I kneel There is no doubt She comes for me.....
    This song makes me cry - Missing you John Wetton

    Valkyrie
    Like a mist through the trees
    I cross the battlefield
    She is born upon the breeze
    She comes to where I kneel
    There is no doubt
    She comes for me

    Peace at last
    Fade to grey
    My war is over now
    This the price I gladly pay
    Surrender to her light
    It shines for love and dignity

    Valkyrie
    See the battle ahead of me
    They say creed killed his throne
    The one true house that I call home
    The place I will be known
    Where I belong
    Carry me


    Valkyrie
    Now that it's all, over and done
    We are as one
    Now I see
    One blazing fire, endless desire
    Just stay with me
    Valkyrie

  58. P.... B....

    What a load of

  59. B.... E....

  60. B.... K....

    Great Song - RIP John Wetton

  61. J.... B....

    I know of no valid reason one could not rate John's voice right there with Sinatra, Bennett, even McCartney but I've never heard anyone talk about that.

  62. 1.... C....

    Great Band!!!!!

  63. J.... B....

    I want to hurry to Heaven, so I can meet Jesus. And John Wetton.

  64. I.... ....

    Traumhaft schöner Song! <3

  65. M.... V....

    My first watch since he left. John was brilliant. But do not forget: Geoff, Carl, Sam and Steve still are, and John left his last with Geoff. We have not heard the entire story yet.

  66. M.... L....

  70. t.... ....

    Ever since I heard "Heat Of The Moment", this band has had a place in my heart and memories of better times, summers seamed endless and Asia was on the radio everyday.   We are blessed to have this band, talents from other bands, combine talent churn out hits and concert tours.   The 80s bands still endure the tests of time.  RIP JW, such a talent and such a voice.

  71. R.... G....

    John, thank you for many of my best younger memories, that still dwell strong in my mind. Thank you!!! Rest in Peace, sir!

    A valkyrie (from Old Norse valkyrja "chooser of the slain") is one of a host of female figures who choose those who may die in battle and those who may live. Selecting among those who die in battle, the valkyries bring their chosen to Valhalla.

    Farewell, John.

  82. r.... r....

    Forever Ásia!!!!

  83. O.... M....

    RIP John!! Maybe the saddest part for me dealing with John Wetton's passing is just rediscovering the music of Asia! Even before he passed I was starting to listen to Asia's music again and I never realized the HUGE catalog of cds they had out since their 1990 cd Than and Now, I know the original line up reunited in the 2000s but didn't know they continued churning out music until 2014!! Wow!!

  84. R.... B....

    such a great voice.... thank you John

  85. d.... ....

    R.I.P. John Wetton

  86. O.... M....

    Crazy thing is just before John Wetton passed I was getting into Asia again

  87. k.... ....

    RIP John, one of my favourite vocalists :-(

  88. P.... S....

    Rest in Peace mr. Wetton

  89. t.... ....

    A set of lyrics by a man who felt his mortality every day for the last several years of his life. There is a poignancy to Omega, XXX, and Gravitas that is not there when these are ego-driven young toughs. Doesn't make it better, but I'd say one should go listen. Farewell John......

  90. h.... ....

    Never in a million years...we will your voice....

  91. T.... R....

    another fine human being passed on. JW and CS two of my favorite bass players for only God knows, were taken...

    Rest in Peace John.....you touched so many lives.....you will never be forgotten.
