Hope and fear
Left her colorless face without mirth
Sweet Daphne, the priestess of Old Mother Earth
Saw a stranger coming near
Full of pride
Still mighty Apollo desired
The God of all Arts gently playing his lyre
Needs a nymph to guard his night
Safe and sound
Daphne lived in the mountains, protecting the ground
A wild virgin girl
In a heavenly world
Breaking Apollos heart
Whatever happens, her goddess will ward...
Chasing his love through the mountains and hills
Slave of a world full of pa**ionate thrills
Dreaming of being embraced by her arms
Could not resist all her magical charms
But meaning no harm
Please dont forsake me in hours of need
Fallen a victim to Apollos greed
Goddess of Earth, she cried so desperately
If I cant escape wont you please let me be
A wild laurel tree
Sacred tree
Oh to worship, to cherish and always be near thee
Your leaves will serve
To those with the urge
To give beauty to words...
