Lyrics Seth Lakeman

Seth Lakeman

The White Hare

I heard her in the valley,

I heard her in the dead of night.

The warning of a white hare

Her eyes burning bright.

Careful you don`t catch her

Or give her right of way.

For she will look upon you,

Steal your soul away

For the white hare is calling,

Dancing in the night.

She'll be out `til the morning,

With eyes burning bright.

The white hare is calling you.

Out upon the heather

A shadow came onto me.

Her hair was hanging over,

Her face I could not see.

She ran behind the rocks,

I heard the hounds cry,

The image of a woman

With her head held up high.

For the white hare is calling,

Dancing in the night.

She'll be out `til the morning

With eyes burning bright.

The white hare is calling you.

If you go hunting,

Calling out your prey,

If you see a fair maid,

With her hair ash and grey,

Careful you don`t catch her,

Give her right of way,

For she will look upon you,

Steal your soul away
