Don't Step in the Fairy Ring

Don’t Step in the Fairy Ring
(To a light, bouncy folk tune)
(Verse 1)
In the meadow, round and small,
A circle grows so neat and tall,
Mushrooms bright with spots of white,
Gleaming softly in the night.
(Chorus)
Don’t step in the fairy ring,
Don’t dance where the night sprites sing,
One small hop and who can say,
Where your feet will run away?
Don’t step in the fairy ring!
(Verse 2)
Some say it’s a doorway wide,
To lands where moonbeams love to hide,
Elves may laugh and take your hand,
Whisk you to a stranger’s land.
(Chorus)

(Verse 3)
Maybe you’ll find a castle bright,
Or tumble through an endless night,
You might not know the road back home,
Once you choose the path to roam.
(Chorus)

(Outro)
So if you see that circle fair,
Of toadstools standing everywhere,
Take my hand and come away—
We’ll live to play another day!
