Ring (Lovespirals Version)
Come away, oh human child!
To the waters and the wild
With a faery hand in hand
You cannot stay another day
Come away, at once, I say
The world’s more full of weeping than you understand
It’s in my hands to find you to find you
Reason after reason to find you
Come away
(x2)
Where the wave of moonlight glosses
Gray sands with light, far off by furthest Rosses
Tis there that we shall foot it all the night
We’ll be weaving olden dances
Mingling hands and mingling glances
Till the moon has taken flight
It’s in my hands to find you
It’s in my hands to find you to find you
Reason after reason to find you
Oh Child, come away
(x3)
- Adapted by Anji Bee from the poem, “The Stolen Child,” by William Butler Yeats which was the inspiration for Kristen Perry’s lyrics on the original version of “Ring” released on ‘Flux’ in 1998
When Lovespirals first toured in 2002 to support the release of their debut album, ‘Windblown Kiss,’ they needed more music for their set, so Anji worked up her own version of the LSD song, “Ring.” This version was performed perhaps only a handful of times and never recorded except in a fan video.
