Witches' Rave Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Motega 

Cover art for Witches' Rave lyrics by Jeff Buckley

I believe this song is about being under a woman's spell where you have almost gone mad about it, like you can't think about anything and you have all this sexual motivation and drive... But this particular girl knew what she had over him. She used it! That's what I sing about whenever I play it live.

The man himself had this to say about his song when he played it live at Arlene's Grocery, "This one is called witches rave. About a spell that was cast over me one day; I loved it as much as I hated it. I couldn't make it go away, and it probably never will... so maybe this'll help things along, Shall we? One, two, three, four..."

Shit, the lyrics are so fucking phenomenal. He was in a league of his own...
