So Mote It Be

[Verse 1] Every spell I've ever cast, every candle that I've burned Every herb I ever gathered, every lesson that I learned Comes down to one old sayin' that the elders passed to me Speak it with your whole heart, and so mote it be [Verse 2] It means let it be so, it means seal it with a prayer It means trust that it's comin' and release it to the air It means do no harm to others, let the good come back threefold It's the oldest kind of promise, it's the truest thing I've told [Chorus] So mote it be, so mote it be Under the moon and the old oak tree Paul Hesch is singin' it for you and me So mote it be, so mote it be [Verse 3] I've said it for the healing of a friend who couldn't breathe I've said it for the lovers who were standin' at the eve I've said it for the children and I've said it for the old And I've said it for the ones who've lost their way out in the cold [Chorus] So mote it be, so mote it be Under the moon and the old oak tree Paul Hesch is singin' it for you and me So mote it be, so mote it be [Verse 4] Now every spell's a seed and every seed's gotta grow You gotta water it with faith and you gotta take it slow You gotta do the work beside it, you gotta walk the land But the magic meets you halfway when you hold it in your hand [Verse 5] So this is the last song and the candle's burnin' low The moon is in the window and the night is white with snow And I'm sendin' you a blessin' from my heart across the sea May your every dream come true, and so mote it be [Chorus] So mote it be, so mote it be Under the moon and the old oak tree Paul Hesch is singin' it for you and me So mote it be, so mote it be [Outro] So mote it be... Paul Hesch... so mote it be
