Lyrics
[Verse 1] I traced a path through bramble and briar
Past the orchard where the orchard ends
Something flickered past my fingertips
Little lanterns on the wind
A gate of iron hummed a lower note
Grew a doorway where a doorway shouldn't be
And a hare with antlers watched me
Like it knew my name already
[Pre-Chorus] Follow follow down the meadow
Where the moss remembers rain
Follow follow past the shadow
Where the silver rivers stain
[Chorus] Take me to the realm you keep
Where the foxgloves hum and the hedges weep
Take me to the revel deep
Where the roots hum low and the willows speak
Bunnie rules the hollow hill
And I am not afraid
Bunnie holds the world so still
And I am not afraid
[Post-Chorus] La la la la
La la la la
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
[Verse 2] The stones arranged a spiral round
Counting stars I'd never seen
A crown of clover on my wrist
Where the river kissed me clean
Drums of birchwood beat below
Every footfall soft and slow
And the night began to glow
[Pre-Chorus] Follow follow down the meadow
Where the moss remembers rain
Follow follow past the shadow
Where the silver rivers stain
[Chorus] Take me to the realm you keep
Where the foxgloves hum and the hedges weep
Take me to the revel deep
Where the roots hum low and the willows speak
Bunnie rules the hollow hill
And I am not afraid
Bunnie holds the world so still
And I am not afraid
[Post-Chorus] La la la la
La la la la
Oh oh oh
[Bridge] If the thistles hold a riddle
I will answer it with light
If the doorway hides a promise
I will walk it through the night
Wander wild
Wander free
Wander home to me
[Breakdown] Not afraid not afraid
Of the moth and the moon and the masquerade
Not afraid not afraid
Let the meadow lull me
Let the meadow lull me
Take me to the realm you keep
Where the foxgloves hum and the hedges weep
Take me to the revel deep
Where the roots hum low and the willows speak
Bunnie rules the hollow hill
And I am not afraid
Bunnie holds the world so still
And I am not afraid
La la la la
La la la la
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
