The Wishing Tree

Peel the night
And step into the light
To make a shadow for a scapegoat
Meet the fight
Or cuckoo take a flight
To make a fool out of a rainbow
I will carry you through Hades’ Gate
And I will cover you when hibernate
And ooh, ooh, say the lady’s not afraid
The lady’s not afraid

In the dark
Where time is painted black
There are no stars left in your pocket
Frozen heart
A will-o-wisp attack
Gone snuffing tails from every comet
I will build a blanket kingdom there
And shining candles from the inky air
And ooh, ooh, say the lady’s never scared
The lady’s never scared

Use the fear
And welcome it in here
Where nothing penetrates our new dawn
Through the years
The Ogre disappears
To the abyss where it was still born
For I will stand for you like The Wishing Tree
And I will kiss your living eyes to see
And ooh, ooh, my lady smiles for me
My lady, smile for me
