I'm a voyager into the ether
I look for the songs in the dark
Unafraid of the strong magnetism
Of the pain that leaves permanent marks

I dream of a wild raging ocean
And a ship that is tossed on the waves
And the wreckage I find on the shoreline
And what's left of the ones I can't save
I come like a thief in the night

I am the witch of the water
I come like a thief in the night
Bewitched by invisible forces
To lead you away from the light

Oh, I sing to the flow of the river
To the shadows of black and of blue
For the thunder that echoes above me
Is the rhythm that I'm riding to
The tales of the ones who are heavy

The lonely, the lost, and the gone
Are the searches that break through my levee
And the well water that I have drunk

I am a witch of the water
I come like a thief in the night
Bewitched by invisible forces
To lead you away from the light

Follow me into the current
And seeking the magic below
Wade where no happy man searches
In the place only mad women go

I am a witch of the water
I come like a thief in the night
Bewitched by invisible forces
To lead you away from the light
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
