When All Hours Became Midnight

from The Other Side by Autumn Dawn Leader

/

about

This song was inspired by reading Susanna Clarke's gorgeously enchanting book 'Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell'.

lyrics

I used to dance to your tune every night that you played
'Til my feet got tired and my mind got frayed

When all hours became midnight
And I longed to flee away

A rose at my lips prevented me from telling my tale
When I tried to speak, every time I tried I would fail

When all hours becamse midnight
A dark enchantment prevailed

I have learned fairy magic has a very great cost
To your peril you go, to my peril I forgot all I was

When all hours became midnight
I dwelt where all hope was lost
