The full moon is calling to what sleeps in me
I know it is time to depart!
I can't stay with you, please understand
I know that my secret has to be kept.
They say that this place here is haunted with ghosts
so shall they believe and fear
and leave me alone with pain and rage
where no-one watches, though all can hear.
So many full-moon nights I stayed here alone
with only my own skin to tear
I howled to the darkness my lonely cries
of fear and anger, full of despair.
But now you are here to stand at my side
three true friends who won't turn away
as they learned my secret their love only grew
and now it's a secret four souls do share.
The night and the forest and all Hogwarts grounds
belong to us, dog, rat, stag, wolf -
we run through the darkness, we howl at the moon
and play tricks to scare both human and beast.
The full moon is calling to what sleeps in me,
come, run with me under the stars!
There's nothing to fear with my pack by my side
you finally healed me, made me feel whole.
Those were bright days, when the Marauders were young and knew nothing about their dreadful future...
