Tricky Pixie: Creature of the Wood

Lyrics:

I Am A Creature Of The Wood,
Forsaken In My Solitude
My Song Is Pleasure And Is Pain,
My Song Can Drive A Man Insane
So Come With Me, My Pipes I'll Play,
And We Will Dance 'Till Break Of Day
I Shall Be Thy Lover

I've Been Alive Since Time Began,
Not Beast, Not God, And Yet Not Man
I Am The Music And The Dance,
I Am The Piper Who Enchants
So Loose All Ties To Mortal Kind,
My Pipes Shall Play Within Thy Mind
I Shall Be Thy Lover

Come Unto Me My Beauteous Maid,
I'll Lead Thee To The Hidden Glade
Thou Shalt Be Happy And Be Free,
When I Play, Thou Wilt Dance For Me
We'll Feast On Fruit Fresh From The Vine,
And I Will Sample The Fruit Of Thine
I Shall Be Thy Lover

Sweet Love I'll Make For Thee Alone,
And Show Thee Sights Before Unknown
I'll Be Thy Master And Thy Friend,
For I'm The Gold At Rainbow's End
I Am The Beast Within All Men,
I Am The Rhyme Past Mortal Ken
I Shall Be Thy Lover

BRIDGE:
I've Played My Pipes Before Man's Dawn,
Seen Maidens Ripe, Turn Pale And Wan
Taught Man The Art Of Song And Dance,
Yet Had To Part From Mortal Clans
I Must Return To Silent Dells,
No Fire Burns, And Nature Dwells
So Take Thy Rest Within The Shade,
And As The Evening Hours Fade
I'll Take Thee Deeper In The Glade,
My Cloven Hooves Through Heather Wade
I'll Teach Thee Things Man Has Forbade,
Our Souls Entwined And Unafraid
I Shall Be Thy Lover

I Am A Creature Of The Wood,
Forsaken In My Solitude
My Song Is Pleasure And Is Pain,
My Song Can Drive A Man Insane
So Come With Me, My Pipes I'll Play,
And We Will Dance 'Till Break Of Day
I Shall Be Thy Lover

I prefer this version! His voice is wonderful.

[IrishTactical]

@xenigirl Definitely a keeper!

[Tharkun]

This is the first studio song I've heard with Alec. I can forgive his voice for not being Heather's now.

[IrishTactical]

@Tharkun I haven't heard any of Heather's songs. What would you recommend?

[FSilvermane]

@IrishTactical

ok you want a good comparison,... Heather singing "Faerie Queen" then afterwards listen to "He of the Sidhe" by Alexander ,.... they are 2 parts of the story,..hers saving her beloved,..his after seeing her beat the Faerie Queen he tries for his freedom.

[IrishTactical]

@FSilvermane Thank you so much, for all the suggestions!

[gaiawingz]

I appreciate that Alexander chose to record this piece, because I was very curious what it would sound like with a more masculine voice, but after all is said and done I still like Heather's rendition better. The way Heather sang this song makes it one that I will remember for all time.

[MommaShakespeare]

At 2:25 I can't help but dance down the street. I've done it, gotten funny looks but don't care whatsoever.

[SableAradia]

I am a Heather and Alec fan and I've been trying to find this song for months; I've always loved it, but I knew it needed to be sung by a male voice, and here it is. I have some of Heather's songs that YouTube doesn't yet; I'll see about fixing that when I get the chance. Thanks for posting this!

[serenitymclean]

@IrishTactical ALL of them! i still trying to be used to Alec. I still love him <3 but i miss her

[Tharkun]

@IrishTactical The Old Man From The Barrow. Life's Flame. Also Flesh Against The Thorn, but I don't think that one is on YouTube, so... hm, Midsummer. I think Alec would do a pretty cool rendition of that one. And for complete balance, watch Faerie Queen, which is a really cool piece that was directly surpassed by Alec.

Everyone seems to like March of Cambreadth more than I do, including the writer who introduced me to Alexander in the first place, so you can give that a try as well.
