lyrics
Ill-met by moonlight
Lyrics: Juliane Honisch / Music: © 1998 Katy Droege
I met him by moonlight
the stars smiling down
and he danced on the bluebells
without touching the ground.
His eyes pierced my heart,
as we danced to the sound of the bluebells
ringing,
singing,
clinging to his grace.
He reached out his hand
and his touch lit my soul
and we danced on the bluebells
and I gave him my all.
His cool lips soothed my skin
while I flamed 'tween the coolness of bluebells
Learning
Yearning
Burning in love.
And the silver night played
us a song so sublime
As we danced on the bluebells
without feeling the time.
He melted into the dawn,
vanished like the moon in bright sunshine
greying
feying
not staying with me.
I could not bind him
I cannot find him
I can’t go back to the world
that has aged and decayed.
Fey lover, why?
You left me withered and old and alone
to atone
and to moan on my own.
Love me, fey lover,
fey lover, fey.
Take me, fey lover,
fey lover, stay.
Fey lover, don't go away ...
