Faerietale

Plucked like a petal A single note rings Straining its voice to be heard And, quite like an angel The maiden who sings Quotes poetic grace Word for word With a step to the left And a tap to the right The mare keeps a beat With her hooves And so dance the elves And their shadows at night As the laugh, side by side In the woods And all she needs now is love Someone to hold her late at night To be together Until the morning light comes All she needs now is love When will she ever be satisfied? She'll never know because she's never tried Then the little bird With the dusty blue wings Hears as he flies through the trees Encircling the clearing He joins in and sings Then goes home to the sky On the breeze And all he needs now is love He says he's looking for the right one Unless he opens his eyes She'll have come and gone All he needs now is love When will he ever be satisfied You know he claims he is And that he's never lied The maiden, beaming, Looks to the stars At peace with the heavens above She says with a smile And a gleam in her eye To think, all I need now Is love All she needs now is love All he needs is a little love All they need is love Love This faerie dream Ain't make believe And what is meant to be Will be
