The Gypsy Lyrics by Black Widow

Black Widow

0

Children take their pleasures in playing out of doors
In fantasy, they play the games their parents played before
I looked high upon the cliffs, a tower above the sea
A lonely child to learn remorse, gypsy said to me
"Would you like to fly just like a bird?"
Her eyes said that she understood, though I've not said a word
Green, her eyes of green, it's all my mind could take
She took me in, we start again, she said she knew the way
To show me all the secrets of the good and train my mind
To come to power of knowledge of every natural kind
Came to understand in time the laws of beast and man
To control them in accord and send my teachings back
Squire's horse had thrown him to the ground, crazed by my spell
I learned he's blessed and what's the best, I know that you want it well
Take me in, change his will, make me his son and heir
Now I live in luxury, freedom without care
Green, her eyes of green, when I closed my eyes
Her smiling face before me, only now I realize
I owe so much to claim my soul and put me on the path
Listen to it, excuse our step, we've all been standing around
Children take their pleasures in playing out of doors
In fantasy, they play the games their parents played before
I looked high upon the cliffs, a tower above the sea
A lonely child to learn remorse, gypsy said to me
"Would you like to fly just like a bird?"
Her eyes said that she understood, though I've not said a word
Green, her eyes of green, it's all my mind could take
She took me in, we start again, she said she knew the way
To show me all the secrets of the good and train my mind
To come to power of knowledge of every natural kind
Green, her eyes of green, when I closed my eyes
Her smiling face before me, only now I realize
I owe so much to claim my soul and put me on the path
Listen to it, excuse our step, we've all been standing around
