A hush of the twilight
A shadow it appears
By the old stone hedgerow
Wrapped in layers of tears
She sings a mournful whisper
Through the cold night air
If you hear her lament
You'll know despair
By the misty box where the heather grows wild
She's danced for centuries
Weeping like a child
Her voice a ghostly echo
A tale of ancient strife
Cross her path dear wanderer
You'll forfeit your life
Oh the banshee
She wails in the dark
With sorrow stitched deep in her heart
Whale of the banshee
Haunting and cold
A harbinger of stories untold
In the ruins of the manner
Where ivy wraps tight
She lingers in the corridors
Pale as the night
The moonlight cuts the silence so brittle so stark
One glance from her eyes
And your world turns dark
She drifts through the village
In shadows she hides
Whispering secrets
The stars can't confide
Her song is a requiem
For lives lost to fate
If you hear her lonely keening
Run for it's too late
Oh the banshee
She wails in the dark
With sorrow stitched deep in her heart
Whale of the banshee
Haunting and cold
A harbinger of stories untold
Oh the banshee
She wails in the dark
With sorrow stitch deep in her heart
Will of the banshee
Haunting and cold
A harbinger of stories untold
