Lost in misty, moss-green silence

Seek her eyes in wild abandon

Midnight tresses bind you

*

Huntress of the shadow land

Talon-sharp her laughter

Lost in misty, moss-green silence

*

Underneath the dark cascade

Silken ripples drown you

Seek her eyes in wild abandon

*

Cold within the eagle’s eyrie

Velvet madness bleeds you dry

Midnight tresses bind you.
