"Fairy" by John Michael Howell follows a love that begins as enchantment and ends as a haunting. A chance sighting becomes obsession, and every touch lifts higher until the fall reveals the beloved was never real. Even after years, loneliness keeps the memory close, like holding a hand to a flame and calling it warmth. The fairy is both magic and delusion, a thrill that hooks the heart precisely because it cannot last.
Fairy Lyrics by John Michael Howell
One day I was walking by a place
When something caught my eye
Never saw the sight the likes of she
Suddenly I’m mesmerized
By such a beautiful design
Something like a scene out of a dream
Oh her charm kept me by her
From her magical desire
Every touch took me higher
Till I fell straight down
She was a fairy
Her love was extraordinary
Something straight out of a book
She had me hooked
Under her spell
I was a daring
Heart looking for love to carry
One look was all that it took
She had me hooked
Hooked on a thrill
But she wasn’t real
Days turned into months then years
Told myself she disappeared
But my lonely road would keep her near
Oh, I know she was fire
Held my hand to her lighter
Every touch took me higher
Till I fell straight down
She was a fairy
Her love was extraordinary
Something straight out of a book
She had me hooked
Under her spell
I was a daring
Heart looking for love to carry
One look was all that it took
She had me hooked
Hooked on a thrill
But she wasn’t real
One look was all that took
She had me hooked
Hooked on a thrill
But she wasn’t real
