songdog - owls lyrics

one night she met the devil
on a windy mountain road,
there was a single star
trembling in a lavender sky,
and like two melancholy lovers
they walked to where the streetlights end
and she held him in her arms
and he started to cry,
he said: “you stole my heart, you just a mortal girl”.
she said: “blind my husband’s eyes and maybe i’ll give
you a whirl”
and she kissed his eyelids closed
and wiped away his tears…….
they’d fly like owls at nightfall, over cities and
hawth-rn lanes,
he gave her a withered wreath for her birthday and a
strapless dress,
and she knew how much he loved her, ‘cos he wrote it in
the dust on a star
and he asked if she’d be his forever and she told him
yes,
and in the back bedroom of a madman’s house
he lit a fire in her that no god could douse
and he made snowflakes fall
one stifling summer night …….
till one day there came a circus, they set up on the
outskirts of town,
her lover wooed a trapeze girl with magic and lies
that he’d whisper in her ear as tender as summer wind
in gr-ss
she had no choice but to do what she did and she
watched her die,
her lover’s gone, he could be anywhere,
but there’s a place he goes, and one day she’ll meet
him there.
she walks the mountain every night
just to watch the twinkling lights ……..
