marian mclaughlin - will-o-the-wisp lyrics

Loading...

mysterious will-o-the-wisp
ethereal spirit appearing
what possible sense could be made of this
figure in the clearing?

past the wisteria, and the hyacinth
i saw the phenomenon of the will-o-the-wisp

in the mire
growing tired and getting lost
my feet trip over the peat
and i slip by the creek
on rocks covered in moss
while collecting kindle
my sight begins to dwindle
i wish i gave this fire more forethought…
i need a light, i need a light
i need a light, i need a light
to guide me…
i need a light, i need a light
i need a light, i need a light
to provide me…
with heat for the night…

as if it sensed my despair
a glowing orb came to view
i approached with caution and care
not knowing what it would do

i’m entranced
by this phantom
like a candle
in a lantern
i watched it dance
and i watched it burn
i watched it dance
and i watched it burn

foolish fire
will you make a fool out of me?
curious why you hold
that smoldering spark…
are you a demon
or are you a lark?
should i engage
in this game with your flame?
or will you do me harm?

i watched it dance
and i watched it burn
i watched it dance
and i watched it burn
i watched it dance
and i watched it burn
then i took my own turn

foolish fire
will you make a fool out of me?
curious why you hold
that smoldering spark…
are you a beacon
or are you a mark?
no, you are misleading me
farther and deeper…
down into the dark
