Out in the wood, there?s a band of small Faeries,
If you walk unwary at night-
They?re laughing and drinking, and soon you?ll be thinking,
That you?d come to join in their light-
If they see you, you know they?ll entreat you,
To come and join in their small friendly dance-
If you do then your soul will go too,
You will loose it with no second chance-
(chorus)
So please come, join, dance in the circle,
The voices will make your heart yearn-
To please come, join, dance in the circle,
But know that you?ll never return-
They?ll promise you gold and silver a-plenty,
You?ll never be empty of love-
Beauty and pleasure, and time at your leisure,
All things that you?ve been dreaming of-
Success will be yours, through several doors,
What ever you wish, you will find you can do-
Beware of this prize, as a curse in disguise,
Since your mortal life soon will be through-
(chorus)
(bridge)
There is a way, as some folk would say,
To save you ?til the dawn-
Denounce their kind, from your mind,
Then you?ll find they are gone-
Children?s tales, pirate sails,
Unicorns, dragons, sorcerers too,
They?re man conceived, make believe,
You know that they aren?t true-
And now I must tell, that I?m under their spell,
Though I know not for how long I?ve been-
And I love a man, though I know that I can
Never ever go see him again-
I went to the king, in his wise faerie-ring,
I asked him,
