"Blood Of Eden"
(feat. Peter Gabriel)

"Blood Of Eden"
(feat. Peter Gabriel)


I caught sight of my reflection
I caught it in the window
I saw the darkness in my heart
I saw the signs of my undoing
They had been there from the start
And the darkness still has work to do
The knotted chord's untying
They're heated and they're holy
Oh they're sitting there on high
So secure with everything they're buying

In the blood of Eden
Lie the woman and the man
With the man in the woman
And the woman in the man
In the blood of Eden
Lie the woman and the man
We wanted the union
Oh the union of the woman
The woman and the man

My grip is surely slipping
I think I've lost my hold
Yes, I think I've lost my hold
I cannot get insurance anymore
They don't take credit, only gold
Is that a dagger or a crucifix I see
You hold so tightly in your hand
And all the while the distance grows between you and me
I do not understand

In the blood of Eden
Lie the woman and the man
With the man in the woman
And the woman in the man
In the blood of Eden
Lie the woman and the man
We wanted the union
Oh the union of the woman
The woman and the man

At my request, you take me in
In that tenderness, I am floating away
No certainty, nothing to rely on
Holding still for a moment
What a moment this is
Oh for a moment of forgetting, a moment of bliss
Heyyyy

I can hear the distant thunder
Of a million unheard souls
Of a million unheard souls
Watch each one reach for creature comfort
For the filling of their holes

In the blood of Eden
Lie the woman and the man
With the man in the woman
And the woman in the man
In the blood of Eden
Lie the woman and the man
We wanted the union
Of the woman and the man

In the blood of Eden
Lie the woman and the man
I feel the man in the woman
And the woman in the man

In the blood of Eden
Lie the woman and the man
I feel the man in the woman
And the woman in the man

In the blood of Eden
We've done everything we can
In the blood of Eden
Saw the end as we began
With the man in the woman
And the woman in the man
It was all for the union
Oh, the union of the woman, the woman and the man.

"Brigidine Diana"

"Brigidine Diana"


Brigidine Diana
A mother of us all
I want to honor you
With this little song from Ireland's soul
For full of grace are you
The Goddess is with you
And blessed are you among all women

And the fruit of your womb,
Sweet Harry and William
Will be all mother's sons
And honor the work you've done
Your love and your compassion
Were Christ-like and were true
And British armed aggression
Is dead because of you

You've burned down Babylon
And Goddess, I for one
Thank you for what you've done
And hope I can become
Just a bit more like you
And love the way you do
I pledge that I'll try to
Goddess you've always been true

"Chiquitita"
(originally by ABBA)


Chiquitita, tell me what's wrong
You're enchained by your own sorrow
In your eyes there is no hope for tomorrow
How I hate to see you like this
There is no way you can deny it, I know
I can see that you're oh so sad, so quiet

Chiquitita, you and I know
How the heartaches come and they go and the scars they're leaving
You'll be dancing once again and the pain will end
You will have no time for grieving
Chiquitita, you and I cry
But the sun is still in the sky and shining above you
Let me hear you sing once more like you did before
Sing a new song, Chiquitita
Try once more like you did before
Sing a new song, Chiquitita
Try once more like you did before
Sing a new song, Chiquitita

"Daddy I'm Fine"

"Daddy I'm Fine"


I was born in Dublin town
Where there was not too much going down
For girls whose only hope
Was not to find a man who could piss in a pot
So early I heard my first guitar
And I knew I wanted to be a big star
And I told my poor worried father
Said I ain't gonna go to school no more
Cuz see I wanna look cool and I wanna look good
My hair slicked back and my black leather boots
Wanna stand up tall with my boobs upright
And feel real hot when my makeup's nice
I get sexy underneath the lights
Like I wanna fuck every man in sight
Baby come home with me tonight
Make you feel good make you feel all right

I'm going away to London
I got myself a big fat plan
I'm gonna be a singer in a rock 'n' roll band
I'm gonna change everything I can

Sorry to be disappointing
Wasn't born for no marrying
Wanna make my own living singing
Strong independent pagan woman singing

And I feel real cool and I feel real good
Got my hair shaved off and my black thigh boots
I stand up tall with my pride upright
And feel real hot when my makeup's nice
I get sexy underneath them lights
Like I wanna fuck every man in sight
Baby come home with me tonight
Make you feel good make you feel all right

I'm glad I came here to London
I've had myself some big fat fun
And I have even made some mon'
I've got the most angelic son
My baby daughter is golden
And I do what I like for fun
And I am happy in my prime

Daddy I'm fine, Daddy I'm fine, Daddy I'm fine,
Daddy I'm fine, And daddy I...love...you

"Dancing Lessons"

"Dancing Lessons"


I wanna go walking with you
If you'd agree
I wanna do some talking with you
Where no one can see
I wanna go dancing darling
If you'd agree
I think I'll feel a safe step darling
If you were with me

And when you wrap your arms around me
When you take me close and say
That you're so happy and so glad you've found me
You take my rainy days and make 'em go away

Long time I've been thinking of you
Do you think of me too?
Long time I've been dreaming of you
make this dream come true
Long time I've been wondering 'bout this
Can this really exist?
I think I feel a peaceful feeling
In the warmth in your kiss

And when you wrap your arms around me
And when you take me close and say
That you're so happy and so glad you've found me
You take my rainy days and make them go away

And on this journey may the good Lord guide us
And may the goddess dance beside us
When you wrap your arms around me
When you take me close and say
That you're so happy and so glad you've found me
You take my rainy days and make 'em go away

When you wrap your arms around me
When you take me close and say
That you're so happy and so glad you've found me
You take my rainy days and make them go away

"Dark I Am Yet Lovely"

"Dark I Am Yet Lovely"


Dark I am yet lovely as tents of Kedar
As the pavilions of Solomon either
Don't hate me because the sun has darkened me
All my mother's sons were so angry with me
They made me watch the vineyards
My own things I did not guard

On my bed at night I sought whom my soul loves
Oh I sought I sought but I found him not
So I ask you daughters of Jerusalem
Where is my love? Oh tell me have you seen him?

Majestic as Lebanon stately as cedars
His mouth so delicious his fragrance so pleases
Such is my beloved such is my darling
And if you see him say my heart is pining
For the kisses of his mouth and his flavours
Oh the king had brought me into his chambers
Say I delight in his love
Say he's the one my soul was

Vast floods can't quench love no matter what love did
Rivers can't drown love no matter where love's hid
So when you do find him out
Bring him to my mother's house
And into the chamber of her who conceived me
Then will he know me and then will he see me
Tell him that love isn't done
Tell him don't leave me alone

"Dense Water Deeper Down"

"Dense Water Deeper Down"


Oh he's dense water deeper down
He makes me forget everything my mother warned
I think about him every night
And I fall asleep holding my pillow tight

He has my love in the palm of his hand
His gentle touch made me scream out loud
His wicked kiss made me feel in bliss
And he's the only love I miss

Oh he's dense water deeper down
He makes me forget everything my mother warned
I think about him every night
And I fall asleep holding my pillow tight

He has my love in the palm of his hand
His gentle touch made me scream out loud
His wicked kiss made me feel in bliss
And he's the only love I miss

 

[fox69]

"Dense Water, Deeper Down"

"Dense Water, Deeper Down"


Why does he open me
Only to shut me out again
Guess that's just him
I wouldn't take it from another man
Guess he needs time
To trust me right
So I can't let him kiss me goodbye.

Cause he has my heart
In the palm of his hands
Can't get it back
Though I tried all I can
He's just so sweet
From his head to his feet
And if he won't love me
I'm indeed

He has me singing
Scaborough Fair
About a man
Who is so frightened of a love affair
He sets hard tasks
So that his love can pass
And ends up lonely till at last

He's dense water deeper down.
He makes me forget everything my mother warned
I think about him every night
I thought I'd sleep
Holding my pillow tight

He has my love
In the palm of his hands
His gentle touch
Made me scream aloud
His wicked kiss
Made me feel the bliss
He's the only love I missed
Oh he's dense water deeper down.
He makes me forget everything my mother warned
I think about him every night
I thought I'd sleep
Holding my

"Do Right Woman"

"Do Right Woman"


Take me to heart and I'll always love you
And nobody can make me do wrong
Take me for granted leaving love unshone
Makes will power weak and temptation strong

A woman's only human
This you should understand
She's not just a plaything
She needs love
Just like her man

So if you want a do right all day woman
You've got to be a do right all night man

A woman's only human
This you should understand
She's not just a plaything
She' needs love
Just like her man

So if you want a do right all day woman
You've got to be a do right all night man
You've got to be a do right all night man
You've got to be a do right all night man
You've got to be a do right all night man
