Lyrics Marianne Faithfull

Marianne Faithfull

Witches' Song

Shall I see tonight sister, bathed in magic greet

Shall we meet on the hilltop where the two roads meet

We will form the circle, hold our hands and chant

Let the great one know what it is we want

Danger is great joy, dark is bright as fire

Happy is our family, lonely is the ward

Sister, we are waiting on the rock and chain

Fly fast through the airwaves, meet with pride and truth

Danger is great joy, dark is bright as fire

Happy is our family, lonely is the ward

Father, we are waiting for you to appear

Do you feel the panic, can you see the fear?

Mother, we are waiting for you to give consent

If there's to be a marriage, we need contempt

Danger is great joy, dark is bright as fire

Happy is our family, lonely is the ward

La da da da da da, la la la la la

La da da da da da, la la la la la

La da da da da da, la la la la la

La da da da da da, la la la la la...

Remember death is far away and life is sweet
