Banshee


The song, ";Bandshee";, as it appeared on the Night Life release, is an
instrumental. The lyrics printed below are from one of the poetry books
of Philip Lynott and is entitled, ";Banshee";.

I was your lover
You were my queen
You broke my heart
I gave up everything

I was your friend
But you were my foe
I told you that
I could not let you go

At night I hear the wind calling
";Oh come back my darling";
Oh banshee! Oh banshee!
It keeps on calling me, keeps on calling me

We dance the night away
Oh we dance the night away

I won your heart
You took my soul
I love you then
But you left me cold

I was your lover
You were my queen
You broke my heart
I gave up everything

At night I can hear you calling
";Oh come back my darling";
Oh banshee! Oh banshee!
I hear you calling me, I hear you calling me
