[S.J. Tucker, Michelle Vixy Dockrey, Betsy Tinney - Were-owl lyrics]
Eyes of any creature
There's no knowing what you’ll find
We all seek the light one way or another
Mostly flying blind
Everything flies at the mercy
Of the moonlight
Lovers more than most at times
You've sought the light where few
Have ever found it
Captured deep in tawny eyes
Little one seek and ye shall find
Take care what you find
In the tawny eyes of a hunter by night
Who, who, who is it dares
To find these feathers, stroke this skin?
How, how, how can you dream of
The night he spreads his wings to hold you
Shows you all he knows and lets you in?
I've heard it said none but
Fools will ever count on
Shifting shapes and flying dreams
Foolish the heart that lights
Upon a love who’s never what he seems:
Shows one face at dawn and
Another in the twilight
Kings have worn his shape before
(kings have worn his wings before)
Lord of the evening
So handsome in the sunlight
Leaves you wanting so much more
Child, death is a dance on the forest floor!
Who, who, who is it dares
To find these feathers, stroke this hide?
Why, why, why set your sights on
The night he spreads his wings to hold you
Shows you all his heart and bids you fly?
Shifting shapes and flying dreams
Love is never what it seems
Wears another skin by day
Be his love and not his prey
Who, who, who is it dares to seek the sun
And still want more?
How, how, how can you trust that he'll
Open up his wings to hold you
Leave you brighter than you were before?
