Dance In The Circle
Out in the wood, there's a band of small Faeries
If you walk unwary at night
They're laughing and drinking, and soon you'll be thinking
That you'd come to join in their light

If they see you, you know they'll entreat you
To come and join in their small friendly dance
If you do then your soul will go too
You will lose it with no second chance

But please come, join, dance in the circle
The voices will make your heart yearn
To please come, join, dance in the circle
But know that you'll never return

They'll promise you gold and silver aplenty
You'll never be empty of love
Beauty and pleasure, and time at your leisure
All things that you've been dreaming of

Success will be yours, through several doors
What ever you wish, you will find you can do
Beware of this prize, as a curse in disguise
Since your mortal life soon will be through

BRIDGE:
There is a way, as some folk would say
To save you 'til the dawn
Denounce their kind, from your mind
Then you'll find they are gone

Children's tales, pirate sails
Unicorns, dragons, sorcerers too
They're man-conceived, make-believe
You know that they aren't true

And now I must tell, that I'm under their spell
Though I know not for how long I've been
And I love a man, though I know that I can
Never ever go see him again

I went to the king, in his wise faerie-ring
I asked him, "Oh what do you think I should do?"
He said, "You'll be fine!", took a large swill of wine
And said, "Why don'cha have him join you?"

So please come, join, dance in my circle
The voices will make your heart yearn
To please come, join, dance in my circle
But know that you'll never return

Oh please come, join, dance in the circle
The voices will make your heart yearn
To please come, join, dance in the circle
But know that you'll never return
