In the shadows of the moonlit night
He moves unseen a whispered flight
Golden eyes that pierce the dark
Through the woods he leaves no mark
A phantom dance in the autumn breeze
You'll only catch him when he pleases
Cunning smiles beneath the stars
He weaves his way through forest scars
Sly fox where do you roam?
Through the mist you make it home
No one knows your secret schemes
You slip away like haunting dreams
Oh sly fox with tales untold
You're the keeper of the forest's gold
On the path where the wild things grow
Silent steps you'll never know
A silver shadow in disguise
His clever heart a thousand lies
He knows the rivers knows the trees
Holds the whispers in the breeze
Steals the truth and bends the fate
But always just a step too late
Sly fox where do you roam?
Through the mist you make it home
No one knows your secret schemes
You slip away like haunting dreams
Oh sly fox with tales untold
You're the keeper of the forest's gold
On the path where the wild things grow
Silent steps you'll never know
A silver shadow in disguise
His clever heart a thousand lies
He knows the rivers knows the trees
Oh the keeper of the forest's gold
And when the night is still and cold
He fades like smoke so calm so bold
In the morning light he's gone again
A mystery that will never end
Sly fox where do you roam?
Through the mist you make it home
No one knows your secret schemes
You slip away like haunting dreams
Oh sly fox with tales untold
You're the keeper of the forest's gold
Sly fox sly fox never found
The king of shadows without a sound
