Away with the Fairies - Janet Devlin

I’m in ribbons again

Can you help me my friend?

I’ve been searching for my mind

But I can’t seem to find it

No matter where I’ve wandered

Two sheets to the wind

I’ll set sail from my sin

And I’ll journey through the night

Into the darkness

Into the black and into the forests

Grant me wings tonight

Grant me wings to raise me high

Grant me wings tonight

Grant me wings so I can fly

I’m away with the fairies

I’ll be a moonbeam child

I’m away with the fairies

I’ll be the banshee cry

Stop howling, stop howling

Stop calling out my name

I’m away with the fairies

I’m away, I’m away, away again

There’s a bottle of ghosts

And the horror it hosts

I’ve been hiding under tables

Drowning in the fables

A coffin in a cradle

Grant me wings tonight

Grant me wings to raise me high

Grant me wings tonight

Grant me wings so I can fly

I’m away with the fairies

I’ll be a moonbeam child

I’m away with the fairies

I’ll be the banshee cry

Stop howling, stop howling

Stop calling out my name

I’m away with the fairies

I’m away, I’m away, away again

I call it a blessing

You call it a curse

My soul is confessing

My life in a verse

I call it a blessing

You call it a curse

My soul is confessing

My life in a verse

I call it a blessing

You call it a curse

My soul is confessing

My life in a verse

I call it a blessing

You call it a curse

My soul is confessing

My life in a verse

I’m away with the fairies

I’ll be a moonbeam child

I’m away with the fairies

I’ll be the banshee cry

Stop howling, stop howling

Stop calling out my name

I’m away with the fairies

I’m away, I’m away, away again
