The Wolf

[Verse 1] In a forest, shadows play, under the moon's silver ray, A little girl with a ball, in the game, she's enthralled. But a bounce too wide, led her where sunlight died, Into the woods, dark and deep, where secrets creep. [Pre-chorus] With each step, the shadows grew, Her heartbeat loud, the danger too. Lost and alone, where cold winds moaned, Her fears, like vines, around her twined. [Chorus] In the dark, a nightmare's face, Giant wolf, in a silent chase. Captured her with no trace, Dragged through the woods, a fearsome place. [Verse 2] Through twisted trees, the wolf prowls, With gleaming eyes and low growls. The little girl, in fear's grip, Thinks her life will end on this trip. [Pre-chorus] But the night wore on, and the stars watched quiet, Her sobs the only break in the forest’s diet. Heart pounding like drum beats in her chest, Wondering why the wolf hadn’t stopped to rest. [Chorus] In the dark, a nightmare's face, Giant wolf, in a silent chase. Captured her with no trace, Dragged through the woods, a fearsome place. [Chorus] In the dark, a nightmare's face, Giant wolf, in a silent chase. Captured her with no trace, Dragged through the woods, a fearsome place. [Bridge] Then the trees begin to thin, The air grows lighter on her skin. Ahead, her home, the lights so warm, To her surprise, the wolf reforms. [Verse 3] In a twist no one could guess, The wolf’s intent was not to distress. He led her back from paths unknown, To the safety of her home’s stone. [Outro] In her yard, the wolf turns back, Into the night, beyond the black. A guardian in a fearsome disguise, A lesson learned beneath the starry skies. [Outro] In her yard, the wolf turns back, Into the night, beyond the black. A guardian in a fearsome disguise, A lesson learned beneath the starry skies.
