=Lyrics=
Down in a hollow in the woods, is where the faeries dance.<br />
Come with me and we’ll visit them, and maybe get the chance.<br />
To join with them in revelry. To join in magic’s song.<br />
So take my hand now, if you dare. Oh, will you come along?<br />

If you would, then bring a gift, to stay in their good grace.<br />
For if you don’t, you’ll never find, the faerie's sacred space.<br />
Shells, and cream, and shiny stones, all have great appeal.<br />
But never should you bring them iron. They have no love of steel.<br />

If you would visit the fairy folk, you must look for the signs.<br />
Follow, now, this mushroom trail. Push aside these vines.<br />
Cross between two hazel trees, and follow the spider’s thread.<br />
If we have followed the path full true, the grove will be ahead.<br />

Can you hear the sound of their ankle bells, tinkling in the glade?<br />
Tonight will be an enchanted one. Approach now, unafraid.<br />
See them now in the pale moonlight. Upon soft moss they twirl.<br />
Moving softly as the wind. In falling leaves they swirl.<br />

Taste now the sweetness of their wine, lifting spirits high.<br />
This fair folk, she would dance with you. It seems you’ve caught her eye.<br />
A kiss is placed upon your lips, as you dance till break of day.<br />
She places something in your hand as the darkness slips away.<br />

Wake ye now in your own bed, as from a pleasant dream.<br />
Was last night just a fantasy, or more than it would seem?<br />
You feel something still in your hand, and to your face you lift,<br />
A stream smooth rock, with a hole in it. It is the faerie’s gift.<br />
