Lyrics
Changeling Bride
Copyright 2003 Paul Hayes BMI
They say that in the hills, there are people living still
who'll steal away your sweetheart from your sleeping side.
And your door will be wide open and you wake up feeling
lonesome,
wondering how love can pass you by
Like a dream one day she comes, singing all your favourite
songs
like nothing ever happened, like she'd never been away.
But you know something has changed, she won't look at you
the same.
And you wonder if a stranger's come to stay.
This girl is an imposter.
I know because I lost her,
and when I got her back she was a Changeling Bride
It's the little things she says, in a hundred different ways,
like everything's a secret that she hopes you never find...
And even when she's here, she's never really there,
like there's always soimething far off on her mind.
...Chorus
Now you're waiting for the day when again she goes away.
There's a lonesome music playing from the woods.
And when she's all alone, they are calling her back home.
And when she goes, this time she's gone for good.
...Chorus
