Quietly but always watching Hidden in the night Eagerly waiting the morrow Hidden from your sight Spotted only in your dreams But nevertheless there Lurking back from out your vision Never seem to care Repelled only by a knife Their kind will bring you fear Follow not their song in darkness It Leads away from here Female faeries, frightful horrors Riding on the storm Luring travellers away In their hideous form They are forever They're standing side by side Running together And staying out of sight They are forever They're standing side by side Running together And staying out of sight Semblance of a poor old woman In ash-coloured clothes
Apron thrown across the shoulder But it's you she loathes Now too late to cry Out in the meadows we will fly Running away to wonder why We die inside Now too late to cry Out in the meadows we will fly Running away to wonder why We die inside They are forever They're standing side by side Running together And staying out of sight They are forever They're standing side by side Running together And staying out of sight Now too late to cry Out in the meadows we will fly Running away to wonder why We die inside Now too late to cry Out in the meadows we will fly Running away to wonder why We die inside
