Traduzione di The Lady Lies
Testo The Lady Lies
The man steps out in the moonlight
At the sound of a scream from below
He thinks he is a warrior
So he picks up his sword and goes
From the mouth of the monster
He rescues the maiden fair
But we know she's a demon Come to lute him to the demon's lair
Through restless foliage and tall trees he leads
To a house in a clearing, a place in her fear she calls home
"Come with me I need you
I fear the dark and I live all alone
I'll give you wine and food too
And something special after if you like"
And though his body bids him
To enter in with her
There was something in her manner
That his mind could not ignore
Also it is whispered
In the kingdom far and wide
To beware a little cottage
In the forest in a glade
For who knows what magic takes place in his world
So he just thanks her kindly preparing to go on his way
"Come with me I need you
I fear the dark and I live all alone
I'll give you wine and food too
And something special after if you like
Come to my garden
Taste the fruits and the spices of love
You can't resist me
I'm the kind that your dreams tell you of
So glad you could make it
We had everything arranged
So glad you saw fit to pay a call"
Some men never listen
And other never learn
But why this man did as he did
Only he will ever know
He knew he was walking
Into a waiting trap
Neatly set up for him
With a bait so richly wrapped
So he went inside there to take on what he found
But he never escaped them, for who can escape what he desires
"Come with me I need you
I fear the dark and I live all alone
I'll give you wine and food too
And something special after if you like"
At the sound of a scream from below
