Babes in the Woods

I only want to be with you
how long will it take me?
If you feel my heart’s untrue
then look deep within me
You’re the gold in my crock
the pearl white in the dark
pounding ocean waves
beneath eternal caves
I only want to stay with you
Why won’t you make me?
Do you feel my heart’s untrue?
than why don’t you change me?
When the world beckons here
reality I bear, words spoken true
are a promise made to you
So tell me what can I do
when my soul’s gone out to you
and this longing I feel just won’t leave
me alone. Aiyaiyai . . .
Deep and stormy shelter
lighthouse on the cliff
deep and stormy shelter
I only want to know you
and follow your footsteps
but if you send me far away
then I’ll die in darkness
Oh how do I express a love unfathomless
any way will do just bring me home to you
‘cos tell me what can I do
when my soul’s gone out to you
and this longing I feel just won’t leave me
alone . . .
Lighthouse on the cliff
deep and stormy shelter.
Oh how do I express a love unfathomless
any way will do just bring me home to you

Broken Promises
05:35
|
|||
I never had anyone like you
and you said neither had you
You were my friend
I loved you true
Do you love me now
I need to know
Why does it hurt so bad
I need a constant love
Our broken promises hammer me down
How do I believe what you say
when what you’re doing goes the other way
People say there’s beauty in pain
Oh but I say I loved you all the way
Chorus: Why does it hurt so bad
I need a constant love
Our broken promises hammer me down
and down and down to essence
The greatest gift anyone can give
is a love without it we can’t live
I had a lover’s love yeah
and I had you to grow and be part of
don’t want to lose
Chorus:
Orange is the sky where I lie
on my bed alone I cry
I must be brave ready to change
my point of view and I’ll be true
Chorus:

Choices Must Come
06:05
|
|||
I was loved by You
when I was in the womb
You showed me by Your touch
just how to make it through
I was loved by You
when I was only two
You played games of war with me
so I could see the truth
Chorus: So I could realize
choices must come
so I could realize what must be done
so that I realize Dharma must be won
so that I realize You and I are one
You’d come to me
when I was a little girl
filling my heart with immeasurable joy
only sometimes You’d hide
when You’d speak to me
you’d say ‘’are you ready now to fight‘’
Chorus:
I’m a little older now
still won’t You lift me up
‘’ This is war time ‘’ You said
and yes we love each other so much
Could we possible be one human family
we could only meet our hearts
along this short journey
Chorus:
Please come again lover
smiling you sweet smile
I’ve been waiting such a long long time
Beloved make me true
to be wholly thine
Oh I am Yours, take me completely this time
Yes I realize choices are Yours
Yes I realize Dharma is for all
I’m just one open door
Dharma is for all

Sailing
02:42
|

Sailing, sailing
far across the sea
over the gentle waves
upon the wishing tree
Wishing tree, wishing tree
carry me, take me to my sailor
take me to my heart’s desire
to the one forever mine
I’ve waited forever
caller answer me
what is that faint call that I can hear
come closer so I can see
Come on board sailor
come into my hull
I’ll hold you, my anchor,
wherever we’ll be bound
Carry me to our home
far across the sea
my deepest lover, my anchor,
sailor of my drams
Wishing tree, sailing tree
all our dreams will flourish
Take me to my heart’s desire
to the one forever mine

Cry Little One
03:48
|
|||
Cry little one,
I’ll be here till morning,
to brighten up your night
Sigh little one
the stars hold you twinkling
touching you till dawn
Open the world with your smile
to bring in the light of the morning,
your crying is only the dew
of the lover longing for glory.
Cry little one,
your heart is a flower
petals opening
Sigh little one
your mother is listening
she’s longing to hear your song.
If the world changes in time
she’ll still be right here by your side.
Death, hunger and pain
won’t change her ageless compassion.
Smile little one
mother is waiting to take you in her arms
Laugh little one
the day is breaking
‘’ You are never alone –
the universe exists only because I exist,
I’m not in love with the moon
‘cos I am in love with the moonlight ‘’
It’s the lover longing for glory.

Sister Subhadra
06:04
|

Woman warrior
your time is now
Take heed of the signs
upon the eastern light
You’re a burning white flame
consuming desire
in dharma’s wondrous way
revealing your fire
Aiy aiy aiy . . .
Women warrior
your time is now
In passing may you stride
into your beauty power
You’re my heart, my fight,
you’re my one redeeming light
you’re my hands, you’re my dance
you’re my one and only chance
Aiy aiy aiy
You played your mandolin
in the winter sun
we talked of land and dreams
those days are stepping stones
and I like to imagine your hand
still in mine, your hair golden braided
your crinkle laughter lines
Aiy aiy Subhadra . . .
Oh where are you?
I feel you near to me
Your body’s disappeared
your spirit’s shimmering
and do you know I was frightened at the way
that you mocked death
now I see you before me full of happiness.

You are Mine
03:16

Chorus: You are mine
and no-one else’s
you belong to me
and nobody else
I am yours
and no-one else’s
I belong to you
and nobody else
When my days are full of shadow
I sit and call your name out loud
and the core that’s deep within me
rises above my insecurity
‘cos
Chorus:
When the pain is tearing my body
I offer it for you to see
you’re the lover that holds within me
come and take it gently from me
