Turn the Lamp Down Low

Lyrics

Turn the lamp down low Shelter me Turn the lamp down low Rising up to see Turn the lamp down low Baby, please don't go Turn the lamp down low Do you feel a flame that's burning As the candle dies? Do you see the spirits stirring As you close your eyes? Do you sense the slow advancement As the twilight thins? Do you see the serpent dancing As it sheds its skin? Turn the lamp down low Turn the lamp down low Please Does the sun renounce its kingdom As the shadows fall? Does a fool rejoice in wisdom When the raven calls? Do you embrace the dancing clayman As he tears your flesh? Do you hear the souls a-screaming In the serpent's mesh? Turn the lamp down low Please don't go Turn the lamp down low Baby, please don't go Do you need the consolation Of a dead man's hand? As the tears of desolation Flood a dead man's land? Do you seek your soul's redemption Under fervent skies? Don't you see your own reflection In the serpent's eyes? Turn the lamp down low Baby, please don't go Turn the lamp down low
