lyrics

Of Witches And A Pure Heart
(music: Martin Schnella | lyrics: Melanie Mau, Martin Schnella)

Witches of the land get ready time has come
The Lord of Darkness will rise let's have some fun

Witches of the land get ready time has come
The devil will rise

We come through the night
To amuse the devils mind
A blazing fire on the mountain top at midnight

Saint Walpurga's Eve
We witches standing side by side
Invoking ghosts of the past
The devil's laughing
What a blast

In days of old
A brave lad set out to court the beautiful princess
It was a long and weary journey

There's a lodge in a forest glade
A hag and her nasty girl opened the door and she instantly wanted
Wanted to espouse him

Only two drops of witches' brew and the wedlock will come true

That's how it should be
He asked for the ugly girl's hand
And then he fell under the witches spell

When he was roaming through the forest near the castle
He saw the beautiful princess
The spell was broken and he abandoned her

The anger of the witch
Calling the spirits of the elements
Once a glorious fort
Now a riverbed

The young man asked the king for a hiding place
From now on they lived a pleasent life
Their hearts became closer and closer for all the time

She fell in love with him
He couldn't imagine to live a life without her
Never live without her
He asked the king for his daughters hand
Will he understand his honest intentions?

The anger of the witch
Calling the spirits of the elements
Once a glorious fort
Now a river

Near by the waterfalls
The princess is still alive
Searching for a pure heart
The spirits saved her life
