    Story Behind the Song
    This song came to me in the middle of the night and wouldn't stop haunting me until it was written down, and haunts me still, but in a different way, as the song it's become.

    Lyrics
    Lady Will-O-The-Wisp

    Down on the bayou, it's not strange to see,
    A will-o-the-wisp, just out of reach,
    Bidding you follow,
    Bidding you follow.

    You'll hear of a lady, as fragile as mist;
    As lovely as moonbeans, as sweet as a kiss,
    Who's a will-o-the wisp.
    Lady will-o-the-wisp.

    And like a will-o-the-wisp, she'll disappear,
    Every time you draw her near,
    Like a will-o-the-wisp,
    Lady will-o-the-wisp.

    They say she appears on the darkest of
    nights,
    A sensuous siren, a goddess in white,
    That no man can resist.
    She's a will-o-the-wisp.

    You'll know she's a danger, but she's so enticing,
    She'll seem like an angel, so warm and inviting.
    She's a will-o-the-wisp,
    Lady will-o-the-wisp.

    And like a will-o-the-wisp, she'll disappear,
    Every time you draw her near,
    Like a will-o-the-wisp,
    Lady will-o-the-wisp.

    Well, if you should meet her, Then, I wiah you well,
    For few who have seen her have come back to tell
    Of their will-o-the-wisp,
    Lady will-o-the-wisp,
    Lady will-o-the-wisp.
