Banshee [BBC Session] [Alternate Take]

Thin Lizzy are an Irish rock band formed in Dublin in 1969. Two of the founding members, drummer Brian Downey and bass guitarist/vocalist Phil Lynott, met while still in school. Lynott assumed the role of frontman and led them throughout their recording career of twelve studio albums. Thin Lizzy are best known for their songs "Whiskey in the Jar", "Jailbreak" and "The Boys Are Back in Town", all major international hits still played regularly on hard rock and classic rock radio stations. After Lynott's death in 1986, various incarnations of the band have emerged over the years based around guitarists Scott Gorham and John Sykes, though Sykes left the band in 2009. more »

I was your lover
You were my queen
You broke my heart
I gave up everything

I was your friend
But you were my foe
I told you that
I could not let you go

At night I hear the wind calling
"Oh come back my darling"
Oh banshee! oh banshee!
It keeps on calling me, keeps on calling me

We dance the night away
Oh we dance the night away

I won your heart
You took my soul
I love you then
But you left me cold

I was your lover
You were my queen
You broke my heart
I gave up everything

At night I can hear you calling
"Oh come back my darling"
Oh banshee! Oh banshee!
I hear you calling me, I hear you calling me
