Prayer

Let the darkness of the night
Shine in every home and take the answer
Bring us something good
From the other side
Stones lie overturned,
Still wonder sits unknown before us always
Glimpse is all we get
For now
Help us see a technicolor
Hue of all below and then go dancing
This is all we get
For now

Watch the wind
Move the willow tree
Make me dance like that
When you count to three
I'll hold the sky
Bring it down for you
Or the weeping moon
In the afternoon
Moving on
So, so long
So long is the way
And short is the day
All my friends
With me til the end
On our way back home
In the night we go
Kicking the stars
Fire game
Along the nook of night
For the break of day
Moving on
So, so long
So long is the way
And short is the day
One more time
One more time in my mind
Turkish delight
Isn't it alright?
Take the flame
Take it on alone
Pass it when it's time
Don't hold too long
Moving on
So, so long
So long is the way
And short is the day
So long is the way
And short is the day
So long is the way
And short is the day

Do you really ever know?
Now don't you, don't you tell me
Leave me to dream about you
Do you really ever know
How much I'm gonna love you?
More than the sky above you
Even more than all the hills
Or sand below the ocean
Light, like a dove in motion
Do you really ever know?
Now don't you, don't you tell me
Leave me to dream about you
The sweetest sound I ever heard
Well no, I did not hear it
I felt it inside like a spirit
In a ship up in the sky
Well maybe come back after
Catching the rings of Saturn
There you are forevermore
A glowin' all about you
Swimming around the ocean
Do you really ever know
What comes before or after?
Found me a home in your laughter

Just as branches bud
Clouds come from the sky again
Down to the open range
Where it's rain for a change
On the great divide
This home of mine is wide and free
Most the time it's dry
So far sees the eye
Soon or later
When they let me free
Soon I know you'll come back home
Sometimes I think
All of these things come around, in the end
Sometimes I see a storm come in
From over there
I'll sit
And watch
Shutters in the breeze
Bobbing to-and-fro
As I wonder where they'll go
I'll name the trees
Gina, Paul, Maisey and Louise
Stanley Turrentine
Gemini Rousseau
Soon or later
When they set me free
Soon I know you'll come back home
Sometimes I think
All of these dreams come around, in the end
Sometimes I see a storm come in
From over there

All I've had I'll soon forget
Going home to work no more
Going there to pay my debt
Over the hills in Jericho
Family waits for me I know
Going home to work no more
Everywhere and everyone
Over the hills in Jericho
Each and every one of you
Going home to work no more
Going there to start anew
Over the hills in Jericho
The road I travel is long
Going home to work no more
Still I travel on and on
Over the hills to Jericho

Sir Orfeo Montague, Massachusetts
It shouldn’t be easy to adorn wintry folksongs with gushing, futuristic synthesizers from your aunt’s New Age CD collection, but the unifying fascination with inner space, the yearning for tranquility, suggests that perhaps these two estranged halves can yet be bridged. ... more
