The Witch's Promise (2013 Remaster)

The Witch's Promise (2013 Remaster) - Jethro Tull

Composer：Ian Anderson

Lend me your ear while I call you a fool

You were kissed by a witch one night in the wood

And later insisted your feelings were true

The witch's promise was coming

Believing he listened while laughing you flew

Leaves falling red yellow brown all look the same

And the love you have found lay outside in the rain

Washed clean by the water but nursing his pain

The witch's promise was coming

And you look and there's where for your own selfish gain

Keep looking keep looking for somewhere to be

Well you're wasting your time they're not stupid like he is

Meanwhile leaves are still falling you're too blind to see

You won't find it easy now it's only fair

He was willing to cater to you but you didn't care

You're waiting for more but you've already had your share

The witch's promise is turning

So don't you wait up for him he's going to be late
