Wolf from Country Nocturne by Gwyneth Moreland

Wolf (Gwyneth Moreland & Skyler Hinkle)

Late that night beneath the pale blue moon
Turned down the lights, shut the door to my room
And lay down my head for to rest, Lord feel that weight on my chest

Wandering soul thru the woods dark and drear
On the wind I can hear you draw near
Touch on my skin and your voice in my ear
On the wind, I hear you draw near

Sky opens up and the stars start swirling
You and I among the moss and heather grey
Wrap my hands in your hair, fingers twirling
Don't care if I ever see the light of day

Your lips on mine, feel the pressure from the earth
Teeth from your lips pierce my throat thru to it's girth
And all that I see now is grey, there's no good left in me, I pray

Moon on skin makes your face look so pale
You stand above me like some monster of old
Queen of the forest like an old fairytale
Waken to know my love will leave you cold

Branches snap as my feet float above
Wind blows cold as it carries away
I gave you my life when I gave you my love
Don't care if I ever see the light of day

Your lips on mine, feel the pressure from the earth
Eye's pale as stone, like a strange and ancient curse
And all that I see now is grey, there's no good left in me, I pray
