Nightmare Tale

Silent darkness around my neck
Singing lullabies of pale and dead
Screaming dreams, sweet nightmare shade
Don’t be so scared, don’t be afraid

The tale of a lonely witch she wrote so long
Whispering to you through old sad song
“To a lonely heart I still belong”

She danced in the dark to cry for the world
When none could see her tears forlorn
For a pure heart I will forever long

Black crows flying high above her head
And pure-white dove resting calm on her arm
Her heart adored those eyes so innocent
Deepest sea of her lifetime love

Darkness around my wounded heart
Slowly faded away, calm glance of your dear eyes
Made me believe, made me now feel
That fear left forever apart
