I was sitting by the taverns hearth With a pint of finest ale The bell tolled of the witching hour And thus began my tale
I step out of the ale house into the midnight air To summon a coach and horseman To get me from here to there No voice on the air in the blackened night To foot I must alight Stepping into the cobbled streets I enter the Glassensikes Foreboding trees obscure the sky As the breeze begins to swell and rise I wander onto stippin' stones An icy warning chills my bones
I pray for passage through the night To keep me safe from peril and plight Spare these demons from my sight On this path bereft of light A blue flame rises from the marsh And floats into my path A headless gentleman now appears I take flight into the mist My heart now pounding I slow the pace To ensure the spirit had not gave chase For but a moment I felt safe But the hauntings began again
How horrible to be balanced upon a stippin' stone A waterlogged marsh on either side, And a goblin / barghest in my way
Goblin / Barghest in my path Grim as any river demon Goblin / Barghest in my path Take your leave or feel my wrath
The air now still I sigh and wait For the next apparition to appear The ghostly call of a near-by owl And the cloud begins to clear The moonlight bursts down from above And illuminates a ghastly sight A white lady stands, a white rabbit too And chills me through and through These creatures shimmer deathly pale Guarding silently by the trees The deceased damsel a forlorn figure Points her finger accusing me I stand alone in the silver moonlight As the clouds tear across the sky Wanting for an earthly companion To walk along my side
The Glassenikes at witching hour A frightful place to be I pray that future drunken men Won't suffer the same fate as me A hulking foreboding terrace Unlike anything else in town Raised up in the distance Now I know I'm homeward bound Gaslights are marking Harewood Grove With their amber glow With the homely scent of an oak log fire I've not got far to go
I pray for passage through the night To keep me safe from peril and plight Spare these demons from my sight On this path bereft of lightTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
