"The Witch Of Bodmin Moor" lyrics

Jamie Bower Lyrics

"The Witch Of Bodmin Moor"

All black she fell to earth
Waiting for a sign
Softly in the wind
A gentle battle cry
A woman she was born
A hero she will die

The witch of Bodmin Moor
Or Joan to those who know
Hung from off the rafters
For many years but now
She lays in her grave
But her ghost still walks the earth

Bury me she cried
But nobody heard
Bury me she cried
Put me in the earth

Ribbons from the tree
The people came for miles
To get the help they seek
From Joan but in the night
They threw her in a cell
In someone else's name

Bury me she cried
Put me in a grave
Bury me she cried
But nobody came

What kind of god forgives
What kind of god forgets
So Joan still walks those hills
For she will never rest

Now it is my turn
To right the wrongs of those
Who carry in my name
The reasons for her ghost
Sleep now in those hills
Joan forever more
