The Green Pajamas

Secret Circle



What kind of magic is this flowing through my veins
Feel like the falcon who kissed Emily Jane
I feel electric in the snow
And the whispering undertow
Singing to little girl ghosts in a circle
Secret circle

Your hair is hanging in my mouth and I'm coming
The walls are falling away and I'm coming
I feel an arcing under my skin
A shark madly swimming within
The bark of the wolves in the din around the circle
Secret circle

All of my dark desire turns to face me
You hold my hand in the fire and erase me
And I'm nothing now but the air
That's blowing through your hair
Caressing the dreams we share in the circle
Secret circle
