The Red Leaf Forest

Intro: Deep in the red leaf forest A hunter with his crossbow Came upon the secret pool Where Diana took her hair down And he saw her perfect body Shining through the thickets Such a blinding beauty He could not say a word And though he stood there speechless She felt his eyes upon her And she turned him to a white stag And set his dogs upon him And the dogs didn't know their master They tore that stag to pieces Then called and called to him Who couldn't say a word But as he lay there bleeding He smiled up at the sunset She who took his life from him Was worth twice the cost Swirls of deep red leaves Fell on his perfect body And he smiled up at the trees But could not say a word When the fig tree blooms When the vine is red with berries Swallows soon will gather To steal every drop of sugar And the world turns in circles In such wheels of burning beauty Each morning kills the night Without a single word Each morning kills the night Without a single word
