I am a creature of the wood Forsaken in my solitude My song is pleasure and is pain My song can drive a man insane So come with me, my pipes I'll play And we will dance 'til break of day I shall be thy lover I've been alive since time began Not beast, not God, and yet not man I am the music and the dance I am the piper who enchants So loose all ties to mortal kind My pipes shall play within thy mind I shall be thy lover Come unto me, my beauteous maid I'll lead thee to the hidden glade Thou shalt be happy and be free When I play thou wilt dance for me. We'll feast on fruit fresh from the vine And I shall sample the fruits of thine I shall be thy lover Sweet love I'll make for thee alone And show thee sights before unknown I'll be thy master and thy friend For I am the gold at rainbow's end I am the Beast within all men I am the rhyme past mortal ken I shall be thy lover La la la... I played my pipes before man's dawn Seen maidens ripe turn pale and wan Taught men the art of song and dance Yet had to part from mortal clans I must return to silent dance No fire burns where nature dwells So take thy rest within the shade And as the evening hours fade I'll take thee deeper in the glade My cloven hooves through heather wade I'll teach thee things man has forbade Our souls entwined and unafraid I shall be thy lover La la la... I am a creature of the wood Forsaken in my solitude My song is pleasure and is pain My song can drive a man insane So come with me, my pipes I'll play And we will dance 'til break of day I shall be thy lover
