Lyrics

What do you know about fairy tales and lies
I wish I could see the story through your eyes
Witches always live to tell the tale
I wish that I had friends beyond the veil
I might have taught you half of what you know
But take your magic with you when you go

If there must be a story it will not come from me
My friends say there are places I should be
I still remember how to make a potion
It starts with a teardrop in the ocean
I told you that a long long time ago
So take your magic with you when you go

I have magic of my own
You will not forget about me
And someday when you’re all alone
You might decide to let that be

There is power in evil eyes and dirty looks
You will not read about that in your books
What you sent my way I hold it all inside
And one day it will come out multiplied
Those who cast the thunder get back the snow
So take your magic with you when you go

Very beautiful song, singing and playing. Truly magical. Love the title too.

Great song. “ I still remember how to make a potion/It starts with a teardrop in the ocean” is some first-rate song smithing. Amazing inspiration from the skirmish prompt.

I like this take on the theme - the darker side of magic - super ideas in this. :-)

This is really insightful and I love the way the perspective unfolds. The hook is really effective and the bridge really lovely. Beautiful gentle delivery.
