Young Mother Nature Bewitches the Fools with a Dance of Death

from SPELLS by The Light Switches

lyrics

In a grove in the woods she laid down, laid down
In a grove in the woods she laid down
Far from the whispers of the nearest small town
In a grove in the woods she laid down

She walked in the moonlight that glowed/ she glowed
She walked in the moonlight that glowed
as reflections on water of a ghost in the road
She walked in the moonlight that glowed

Doomed by her father, though she won't know his name
She is doomed though she won't know his name
who came to desire her exquisite young frame
she is doomed though she won't know his name
Banished by the laws of old men, she is banished by the laws of old men
Never to be seen of or heard from again, she vanished from the laws of old men

In a grove in the woods she laid down, laid down
In a grove in the woods she laid down
Far from the whispers of the nearest small town
In a grove in the woods she laid down
