Will-o’-the-wisps (Remake v5)

[eerie and soft instrumental intro] [Verse 1] There’s a light that flickers on the fen, It glows, it fades, it shines again. No lantern swung by mortal hand - It calls you deep into the land. [Chorus] Lights in the fog, dancing low, Where no true path will ever go. They promise warmth, they speak in sighs, But lead beneath the silent skies. Will-o’-the-wisps, so cold, so fair. Follow them not, and take care. [instrumental] [Verse 2] Through bog and bramble, rock and rain, It beckons softly, sings your name. A silver thread in shadows sewn, It leads the weary traveller on. [Chorus] Lights in the fog, dancing low, Where no true path will ever go. They promise warmth, they speak in sighs, But lead beneath the silent skies. Will-o’-the-wisps, so cold, so fair. Follow them not, and take care. [instrumental Interlude] [Verse 3] Some say they’re souls who can’t find rest, Still glowing with a lost heart’s quest. And if you chase their fleeting spark, You may not find your way from dark. [Bridge] For many stepped where now none tread, And joined the glowing, whispering dead. [Final Chorus] Lights in the fog, soft and sly, Beneath the vast and watching sky. One step too far, one wish too near - And all you were will disappear. Will-o’-the-wisps, in night’s embrace - They never leave a single trace. [instrumental outro]
