Walk with me through the dusk Faded embers on a veil of rust, Steal yourself be clear of sight Stay down stay low in the harvest light. With a feather in your step you hide in the breeze But there's a whisper of your name in the fallen leaves Still yourself stay out of sight Stay down stay low in the harvest light Love's got a hold of my heart and I I don't know where to start So I'll start by loving you Love's got a piece of my mind and I search until I find So I'll start by finding you Hunter's Moon Through the dying grass Joker's tune, blessings from the past Wandering fools build walls that never last Trailing hope still remains (I'll keep on praying) Hunter's song, love's refrain (I will be waiting) Hearts can never be a place to hide (I'll find a way to) Come home come home in the harvest light (All I can say is) Ooh love's got a hold of my heart and I don't know where to start So I'll start by, loving you Love's got a piece of my mind and I search until I find so I'll start by Finding you-oo-oo-ooh Hunter's Moon Through the dying grass Joker's tune, blessings from the past Wandering fools build walls that never last Hunter's Moon Through the dying grass Joker's tune, blessings from the past Wandering fools build walls that never last

On a fisherman’s moon I see a young girl Calling out, walking forward, looking back Digging for treasure Digging up the past She’s got Stardust in her hands On a fisherman’s moon she walks the empty streets Calling out to the sea, to the sea Her hand to the night sky, bringing her back To the lonely bay of sleep Like a vision in grey she smiles plunging deep Like a vision in grey she smiles to the sea Like a vision in grey she smiles She is free Oh, wild wild woman Won’t you come back to me Won’t you come back to me On a moonless night, she is nowhere to be found No one calling out, no one listening, listening The treasures like diamonds on the water They are jewels glistening, glistening Like a vision in grey she smiles plunging deep Like a vision in grey she smiles to the sea Oh, like a vision in grey she smiles She is free Oh, wild wild woman Won’t you come back Like a vision in grey she smiles plunging deep Like a vision in grey she smiles to the sea Like a holy ghost fishing she smiles She is free Oh, wild woman Won’t you come back to me Won’t you come back...

I will leave you a feather in the well my love A feather on the moss covered stone The plume I found for you my love In the place of devotion and home Hollow room, hallowed ground Bridge between lost and found Set adrift Dust and sand, dust and sand Hollow room, hallowed ground Bridge between lost and found Set adrift Dust and sand, dust and sand This place isn't heaven, it's closer to the earth A land for souls to roam Relics, memories of you my love Are here in the shadows of old Hollow room, hallowed ground Bridge between lost and found Set adrift Dust and sand, dust and sand Hollow room, hallowed ground Bridge between lost and found Set adrift Dust and sand, dust and sand (Days will fade, but we remain) (Time recalls our name) (Shadows waiting, flames they're making) (To return again) Hollow room, hallowed ground Bridge between lost and found Set adrift Dust and sand, dust and sand Hollow room, hallowed ground Bridge between lost and found Set adrift Dust and sand, dust and sand Dust and sand dust and sand, dust and sand (Days will fade, but we remain) Hollow room, hallowed ground (Time recalls our name) Bridge between lost and found (Shadows waiting, flames they're making) Hollow room, hallowed ground (To return again) Bridge between lost and found (Days will fade, but we remain) (Time recalls our name) (Shadows waiting, flames they're making) (To return again) Set adrift Dust and sand, dust and sand

Burning Love 03:44
Looking back at the camera I see the ­shadow you leave behind Trace your face like a portrait a hungry affection in your eyes Though I make up my face I bear my heart in fire and song Angel grace in the morning a raining affection in disguise Climbing out of my skin I have been running but I have not arrived (Oh now, burning love Burning love Oh now Burning love Burning love) It’s never enough to be wandering And there is no time to be following And all I can do, and all I can do is burn in love Looking back through the forest Deep in reflection in my mind Your face is like the country Wide and open In disguise Though I make up my face I bear my heart in fire and song Angel grace in the morning a hungry affection in disguise Climbing out of my skin I have been running, but I have not arrived (Oh now burning love Burning love) It’s never enough to be wandering, burning love There is no time to be following And all I can do and all I can do Looking back at the day light of my life Stepping into the twilight Run and hide

Lost woman Afraid of my heart Tired lover Always looking for a start To begin each new day Promise of your return Lost woman Let me burn This is what I said to you Here is what I want I search for someone like you I search for someone like you I search, I search for someone like you I search for someone like you I search for someone like you I search, I search for someone like you If this is what I say to you On my troubling road Lost woman Carrying my soul Sharing time Watch me turn Lost woman Let me burn If this is what I say to you Here is what I want To search for someone like you To search for someone like you To search, to search for someone like you I search for someone like you I search for someone like you I search, I search for someone like you (Lost woman) (Afraid of my heart) (Lost woman) (Afraid of my heart) I search for someone like you I search for someone like you I search, I search for someone like you Ooh I search for someone like you I search for someone like you I search, I search for someone like you ooh I search for someone like you I search for someone like you I search, I search for someone like you I search for someone like you I search for someone like you I search, I search for someone like you

I was fine before you came Wasn’t needing something else Wasn’t looking to be saved, the tide faithfully the same But I’m here like a new day, a heavenly start I wasn’t looking to be saved I wasn’t looking for your heart Take this love and make it gold Take my hand to love and hold And all the stars are shining down I wasn’t meaning to get lost Running wild with the night Wasn’t looking for the answer in the back of my mind There’s a reason to be here, a holy reason why Like a tide I reappear like the tightrope of time Take this love and make it gold Take my hand to love and hold And all the stars are shining down The diamond sky lights the way Colliding spirits of yesterday Ooh we are here for only one more day So, take my heart, ooh take my heart I was fine before you came Wasn’t needing something else Wasn’t looking to be saved The tide faithfully the same Ooh take this love and make it gold Take my hand to love and hold Ooh take these words, the stories of old And all the stars are shining (and all the stars are shining) And all the stars are shining (and all the stars are shining) And all the stars are shining (and all the stars are shining) (All the stars are shining)

She was crossing over oceans With a ghost, travelling light She was looking for a reason And comfort in the night Oh, where did you go and where are you running from? What did you say? And what song were you singing? Pleading grace at the sky A lonely cry To the night To the night She is rolling, she is rolling She is holding back the tide Waiting for the light She is rolling, she is rolling She is holding back the tide Waiting for the light She is holding, holding tight But her lullaby gives no comfort to the night She is leaving the shoreline Cross a myriad of lines And the ghost behind her shoulder Like the hands of time Oh where are you now? And why are we hiding here? Show me the light Make this disappear Pleading grace at the sky Lonely cry to the night, to the night She is holding She is holding She is holding back the tide Waiting for the light She is holding, she is holding She is holding back the tide Running for her life She is holding, holding time She is holding, holding tight But her lullaby brings no comfort to the night

Lighthouse 05:43
I am the keeper, the lighthouse An arrow, the impact The line on the horizon winding and blinding I am the harbor in the night, lights shining I am the season, the reason the sea hugs the shore I am the woman at the station, waiting for more I am the lover in the darkness calling your name I am your light in the sky, a quiet refrain The house with the blue gate is waiting The book with the pages turning And my heart it is open and waiting For love to find a way, love to find a way Love to find a way, love to find a way I am your hand on your back when you’re walking alone I am the secret you’ve been holding, the flower that’s grown I am the lover in the night like a fire that burns I am the mirror in the hallway with the morning sun The house with the blue gate is waiting The book with the pages are turning And my heart it is open and waiting For love to find a way Love to find a way, ooh love to find a way Love to find a way, love to find a way Give me a chance to find my way Give me the words to make you stay Give me the time to thank the day That love, found a way­ ooh-hoo-ooh The house with the blue gate is waiting The book with the pages turning And my heart it is open and waiting For love to find a way (ooh love), love to find a way (ooh love) Ooh love to find a way (ooh love), love to find a way(ooh love) Ooh love to find a way (ooh love), love to find a way(ooh love) Ooh love to find a way, love to find a way (ooh love) (Ooh love) (Ooh love) (Ooh love) (Love to find a way) (Ooh love) (Ooh love) (Ooh love) (Ooh love) (Ooh love) (Love to find a way) (Ooh love) (Ooh love) (Ooh love) (Ooh love) (Ooh love) Aah-ah ooh hoo-ooh, oh my darling Ooh-a-hoo-oo-ooh

Juniper 04:47
In the heart of a winter's night In the wind blown sky A juniper tree Protecting a moonless night On this forgotten road, bathed in nothing, bathed in light A furnace of stars An alter of worship For your love and mine Oh, juniper green Invisible serene A love divine Juniper green, invisible serene A love divine Brittle bog road Loveless soil, holding fast remaining Painted pilgrim, elemental child Carved by the shade of time Oh, juniper green, invisible serene A love divine Juniper green, invisible serene A love divine A love, my love, a love divine A love, my love Juniper green Invisible serene A love divine Juniper green Invisible serene A love divine (Aah-aye aah-aah-aye) Juniper green (Aah-aye aah-aah-aye Invisible serene (Aah) (Aah) (Aah)

Wake up, shake off Remains of yesterday Precious faces Homes for us to make Minutes, graces Hands, we’ll walk away Cloudy sunshine Storms will come our way In these days I give you Tiny devotions In these times I live for tiny devotions Wake up, shake off The remains of yesterday Precious faces Little homes for us to make In these days I give you Tiny devotions In these times I live for Tiny devotions Hold on when you know there’s Only one night to go Hold on little darling Your story will be told In these days I give you Tiny devotions In these times I live for Tiny devotions In these days I give you tiny devotions In these times I live for tiny devotions Hold on when you know there’s only one night to go Hold on little darling your story will be told You live a long time in the shadow of a crime How were they to know You carried on through and they didn’t break you And now it’s time to go So, hold on when you know there’s only one night to go Hold on little darling your story will be told You live a long time in the shadow of a crime and How were they to know You carried on through and they didn’t have you And now it’s time to go Time to go, time to go
