Come to the window, my love, listen well, can you hear it?
Beckoning you is the voice that has haunted your dream.
Leave here the cross made of rowan; you’re guided by spirit!
Surely you’ll find what you’re seeking outside by the stream…
//: Feel the wind cut sharp through your dress, nothing you can hide that I can’t caress.
Come away, love… Have I a name? Call me Will. ://
Come, cross the bridge, follow Will, he can see that you’re aching.
Most wouldn’t notice, they’d say you’re a wisp of a girl.
Will loves a wisp and he knows when she’s ready for taking.
See how his song makes you dance as you smile and you twirl…
//: Like the river, pulled ever on, you’ll have walked so far when they know you’re gone
That they may, love, never track you down the hill. ://
See not the rags that I wear nor the leaves in my hair, love.
Will leads you on through the night by the sparks in his eyes.
Deep through the woods, just a bit further on and we’re there, love.
Will has prepared a delight, and for you, a surprise…
//: You are fire, burning within, all the heat you hold in that tender skin
Might allay, love, some of my heart’s icy chill. ://
Take a few steps in the mire, and you feel yourself sinking.
Will stops the fear in your eyes with a languorous kiss.
Child, did you not hear my warnings? Oh, what were you thinking?
No, you’re not thinking at all, Will has trapped you in bliss…
//: Into earth I’ll take you at last, and I’ll own you all and I’ll hold you fast
For I’m Fae, love, just close your eyes and be still. ://
Yes, I’m Fae, love, Will-of-the-Wisp… Call me Will.
