This song is about a fictious character in one of my native american short stories. So I wrote a song about her.

I was writing one of my short stories and I named one of my characters Raven. I then saw a Raven(bird) outside and I saw it dancing around and doing it's thing and that just added to the story. Then the song came together.
Raven is a mystical person, she speaks to the children of mother nature. She can summon and speak to the moon and the stars. She is kind of like a witch, but she isn't she is just an earthy creature.

Verse-1
Candles light up the air
Scents that calls to the spirits of earth
Bring the night to life
As you hear her chant magically
She sings as she breathes hauntingly
Wailing is her voice on the breeze.

Main Chorus-
Raven is her name she sprang from the fire with wings of flames.
She cries out to the night
Brings the spirits down
Then she will dance, sway, and sing,
She'll call to the birds of the night
To join her in her circle of the dance of life
She's the raven.

Verse-2
Hearts are bright in the darkness
Your are the spirit of the night
A true love in flight
Moon goddess light the sky
Break thru pushing clouds aside
For I invole thee tonight.

----Guitar Solo-----

Main Chorus-
Raven is her name she sprang from the fire with wings of flames.
She cries out to the night
Brings the spirits down
Then she will dance, sway, and sing,
She'll call to the birds of the night
To join her in her circle of the dance of life
She's the raven.


Verse-3
I hear their voices
Leaving me no choices
Like the sound of thunder
WE've cast our spell for peace
AS we peer into the rounded glass
Incense is burning the rooms come alive
I've seen the past
Now show me the future
WE won't allow all this hate to come to pass.

Main Chorus-
Raven is her name she sprang from the fire with wings of flames.
She cries out to the night
Brings the spirits down
Then she will dance, sway, and sing,
She'll call to the birds of the night
To join her in her circle of the dance of life
She's the raven.
