She's of this world and she is not
More beautiful than the deepest cut
She'll break your heart and heal your pain
Rock you when your worn and drained
She'll warm you when you're cold from fear
Give you strength when night draws near
She knows you as you know your name
Each time you curse her she'll love you the same
She is the Wise One- the one who knows
She understands the way that Life grows
She speaks in tongues before language was known
She's a refugee, she's always home
She builds a wall around her bed,
She plants a forest round her head.
She takes the stars out of the sky
and puts them in her blackened eyes...
And in the quiet of the night
She holds a tiny thread of Light
She's a place of challenge and a place of rest
Nourish all the souls upon her suckled breast
She's old as the Earth and very young
the Forest Hag and the Wild Woman
She is the Wise One- the one who knows
She understands the way that Life grows
She speaks in tongues before language was known
She's a refugee, she's always home
She builds a wall around her bed,
She plants a forest round her head.
She takes the stars out of the sky
and puts them in her blackened eyes...
And in the quiet of the night
She holds a tiny thread of Light
Kiss my neck and make a woman of me.
Brush your lips against my cheek, Wild Darling.
If I revealed my desire, the world would catch fire
The way we make love is the way we are with God.
When you open your mouth, birds fly out.
When you laugh, children are born.
You are the Golden One
they've spoken of for centuries...
Let me press my head against your heart
and listen to the sea...
The blessing, this shipwrecking, on your shore.
Don't send for me, I don't need to be
rescued anymore
Under the spell of your call, I willingly fall
into the arms of the one who was in me all along
When you open your mouth, birds fly out.
When you laugh, children are born.
You are the Golden One
they've s
poken of for centuries.
Let me press my head against your heart
and listen to the sea...
As our love grows from a seed to a tree,
rooting yourself deeper and deeper into me
each passing season brings a constellation of reasons...
I still come alive 1,000 times when your eyes meet mine
When you open your mouth, birds fly out
When you laugh, children are born
You are the Golden One they've spoken of for centuries
Let me press my head against your heart
and listen to the sea...
