The Night Witch

The night witch lives alone outside of town
You can hear her calling children in the night
And when their parents wake
They find their children gone in the light

The night witch lives alone outside of town
Her castle is a nightmare carved from stone
She sings a siren song at night
And lures the children far from their homes

Hush my precious children
Lock your windows tight
Beware the song of the witch in the night

Locked away they're never seen again
They sleep for years slowly growing old
And when their youth has died away
She leaves their bodies out in the cold

Hush don't break the silence
Lock your windows tight
Beware the song of the witch in the night

The sounds of mourning cries will terrify
They echo 'cross the land through every town
Their tears of could fill an endless sea
In them their parents drown

Hush my precious children
Lock your windows tight
Beware the song of the witch in the night
