Blue Moon
"And the blue moon is rising
Above the tallest mountain
In the distance by its pale blue light
She spreads her wings
Ready for a flight..."

The First Wildflower
"Wildflower
On the mountain
Same purple and blue
As the rainbow abrow the hill,
Wildflower..."

Green Pearl
"And the inches are rising on the window frame
From the snow falling outside
And I'm watching the flames dancing higher
Goodbye, my friend, goodbye..."

Grey Stone
"I am a statue
My name has been forgotten
I've stood here for a thousand years
Where no-one's found me since.
I once had a story..."

Her Home
"And the rain falls on the flowers
In the meadow
White petals act as shelter
Where she's made her home..."

In Time
"And the wind blows
And the tree grows
And the birds fly
Snow falls
And the eagle calls..."

Memories
"Memories
Of the past years
A song hanging on
To times long gone.
No way to bring them back..."

My Life
"And all my worries and regrets
All the times that I've cried
Can't abide to the many times
That I have smiled.
And I just keep breathing..."

River
"I am a river
Wild and free
Unpredictable
On my way to the sea.
I don't know..."

The Shores of Ireland
"On the shores of Ireland
The cliffs dropped away.
The water writhed
Wave after wave,
Crashing, flying, salty spray..."

Take My Hand
"Take my hand and we will sail away
Far from the light of day
Take my hand and we will climb up high
Right into the sky
Take my hand and we will start..."

Waterfall
"The waterfall
On the mountain
Dancing
In the sun..."

The Wild Roses
"I can't stay here in the rain another day
This castle is bound to fall
The cruel wind is blowing against the stones
On these cold, cobbled walls
And the wild roses..."

Winter's Eyes
"And I can't sleep tonight
But that's alright
It's cold across this line
Yet I'm fine
Because I have everything that I need..."
