CELTIC THUNDER LYRICS - Midnight Well

"Midnight Well"



In the town, the people stay away

From the midnight well

For it's dark and evil, so they say

The midnight well



They'll tell you a tale of a lovely young maid

The fairest that they'd ever known

What a beauty, they say

But she went her own way

On that night, she set out on her own



For they say, she had a rendez-vous

At the midnight well

With a gypsy man she barely knew

At the midnight well



Nobody knew where he came from

But they remember the fire in his eyes

His earring of gold

And his hair black as coal

And a look that could just hypnotize



When he said

Come away, come away with me

Come here and lay with me

Come away out of the light

Come away, come away

Come and ride with me into the night



Never more, they never saw her face

At the midnight well

She was gone, and never left a trace

At the midnight well



They say when the summer nights come to an end

The harvest moon glows in the sky

A black horse will appear and a sound you will hear

As the ghost of a gypsy flies by



And he says

Come away, come away with me

Come here and lay with me

Come away out of the light

Come away, come away

Come and ride with me into the night



Come away, come away with me

Come here and lay with me

Come away out of the light

Come away, come away

Come and ride with me into the night



Come away, come away with me

Come here and lay with me

Come away out of the light

Come away, come away

Come and ride with me into the night
