I walked out to my patio for my last cigarette On my lawn fluorescent lights in perfect silhouette This can't be right I told myself For in winter mushrooms do not glow But I watched in stunned amazement As the ring of mushrooms grew And then I heard a tinkling sound Music sweet to the ear And at that point I realized That the faerie folk were here The mushrooms glowing in the night Their shelter from the cold Their simple songs of peace and love Were simple songs of old I knelt transfixed by what I saw Those dancing faerie lights But all to soon this magic beauty Vanished just like the Northern Lignts

Magic Mushrooms
I walked out to my patio for my last cigarette On my lawn fluorescent lights in perfect silhouette This can't be right I told myself For in winter mushrooms do not glow But I watched in stunned amazement As the ring of mushrooms grew And then I heard a tinkling sound Music sweet to the ear And at that point I realized That the faerie folk were here The mushrooms glowing in the night Their shelter from the cold Their simple songs of peace and love Were simple songs of old I knelt transfixed by what I saw Those dancing faerie lights But all to soon this magic beauty Vanished just like the Northern Lignts
There is magic in the air, you just have to believe
