Lyrics
THE NIGHT OF THE WITCH
© R Hemsworth (22nd January 2021)
IN THE STILL OF THE NIGHT
IF YOU'RE QUIET YOU MIGHT
JUST HEAR HER WORD
THE SOUND FROM THE TREES
IS THAT YOUR NAME ON THE BREEZE
BE NOT SEEN OR HEARD
(Chorus)
THE NIGHT OF THE WITCH MAY BE HIDDEN FROM VIEW
BUT THE SPELL OF HER MAGIC IS CALLING TO YOU
THE POTION CAN BE USED FOR EVIL OR TRUE
BUT DARE YOU DRINK FROM THE WITCHES BREW
THEY SAY SOME ARE GOOD
AND THAT MAYBE YOU SHOULD
JUST KEEP AN OPEN MIND
BUT THEN OTHERS ARE DARK
BITE MUCH WORSE THAN THEIR BARK
BE AFRAID OF THAT DARKER KIND (maybe whispered?)
IF A CURSE THEN SHE CASTS
THEY SAY FOREVER IT LASTS
OR UNTIL YOUR DYING DAY
ALTHOUGH YOU MAY NOT BELIEVE
THAT SHE IS OUT TO DECEIVE
JUST HEED THE WORDS I SAY
(Chorus)
THE NIGHT OF THE WITCH MAY BE HIDDEN FROM VIEW
BUT THE SPELL OF HER MAGIC IS CALLING TO YOU
THE POTION CAN BE USED FOR EVIL OR TRUE
BUT DARE YOU DRINK FROM THE WITCHES BREW
(SOLO)
SO AS THE MOON IN THE SKY
SEEMS TO WATCH LIKE AN EYE
WITH A SHIVER DOWN YOUR SPINE
AND THE WIND CALLS YOUR NAME
YOU SEE A FACE IN A FLAME
THE WORDS YOU HEAR AREN'T MINE
(Chorus)
THE NIGHT OF THE WITCH MAY BE HIDDEN FROM VIEW
BUT THE SPELL OF HER MAGIC IS CALLING TO YOU
THE POTION CAN BE USED FOR EVIL OR TRUE
BUT DARE YOU DRINK FROM THE WITCHES BREW
BELIEVE IN THE WITCH WHETHER FALSE OR TRUE
SHE MAYBE FOR OTHERS OR MAYBE FOR YOU
A CHALICE OF POISON OR A LOVE OVERDUE
DARE YOU DRINK FROM THE WITCHES BREW
THE NIGHT OF THE WITCH MAY BE HIDDEN FROM VIEW
BUT THE SPELL OF HER MAGIC IS CALLING TO YOU
THE POTION CAN BE USED FOR EVIL OR TRUE
BUT DARE YOU DRINK FROM THE WITCHES BREW
Then ad libs out
