Wolf lyrics

Wolf mother, where you been?

You look so worn, so thin

You're a taker, devil's maker

Let me hear you sing, hey ya hey ya

Wolf father, at the door

You don't smile anymore

You're a drifter, shapeshifter

Let me see you run, hey ya hey ya

Holy light, oh, burn the night, oh keep the spirits strong

Watch it grow, child of wolf, keep holdin' on

When I run through the deep dark forest long after this begun

Where the sun would set, the trees were dead and the rivers were none

And I hope for a trace to lead me back home from this place

But there was no sound, there was only me and my disgrace

Hey, hey-hey, hey, hey

Hey, hey-hey, hey, hey

Hey, hey-hey, hey, hey

Hey, hey-hey, hey ya.

Wolf mother, where you been?

You look so worn, so thin

You're a taker, devil's maker

Let me hear you say, hey ya hey ya

Wolf father, at the door

You don't smile anymore

You're a drifter, shapeshifter

Let me see you run, hey ya hey ya

Wayward winds, the voice that sings of a forgotten land

See it fall, child of wolf, lend a mending hand

When I run through the deep dark forest long after this begun

Where the sun would set, the trees were dead and the rivers were none

And I hope for a trace to lead me back home from this place

But there was no sound, there was only me and my disgrace

Hey, hey-hey, hey, hey

Hey, hey-hey, hey, hey

Hey, hey-hey, hey, hey

Hey, hey-hey, hey ya.
