"The Watch" - Lyrics
Added 2024-10-14 18:49:27 +0000 UTCI've had some people request the lyrics to my series of fantasy songs collected in the "Book One" playlist on my Spotify so over the next few days I'll be typing up the lyrics to each song and posting them here for posterity. Excuse the preamble, here are the lyrics to "The Watch".
One must be quick as a hare
One must be silent as shadow
If you’re to head off
And not tryin’ to get caught
By The Watch
One must move low in the grass
One must be quiet in shallows
If you’re to head off
And not tryin’ to get caught
By The Watch
They’ve got dark crimson cloaks
Gauntlets that choke
If you’re really leaving, stay off of the roads
Make no mistake, there’s no need to provoke
If they even see you, they swing for your throat
If I could give one final warning
I pray that you’d stay and you’d wait ’til the morning
If you’re tryin’ to head off
And not tryin’ to get caught
By The Watch
One must be brave as a fool
One must be cunning as wolf pack
If you’re to head off
And not tryin’ to get caught
By The Watch (Drop your bag)
One must be too filled with wine
One must find no pleasure breathing
If you’re to head off
And not tryin’ to get caught
By The Watch
(They’ve got eyes on you)
They’ve got ebony blades
Self sharpened fangs
They’ll kill a man and then dig him no grave
Don’t get it wrong, you will not get away
From The Watch
If I could give one final warning
I pray that you’d stay and you’d wait ’til the morning
If you’re tryin’ to head off
And not tryin’ to get caught
By The Watch
