Arcadian Life

Jasmine in the morning, at first light
Violet lavender moon, relic of the night
A sunflower's rising to greet the light
While choirs of birds are singing farewell to the night
Arcadian Life
Everything is right
I'd leave here in a second
I wouldn't think twice
Dewey blossoms shining, in vibrant light
Fig tree feels weary, burdened by the nights
A lone raven soaring toward the sunrise
Crickets fall silent, waiting for the night
Arcadian Life
Everything is right
I'd leave here in a second
I wouldn't think twice

Bristlecone Meditation

High in the desert lives an old pine tree
Crowning the mountain's cliffs crimson and steep
Worn, wild, and weary I now long for sleep
So on my journey here I stop, and I dream
Of the mountains, of seas long ago
Gone from time
And of rivers
Sculptors of the canyon far below
Songs of ravens
Dotting the time
Through echo
And remembering
Everything flows on through time
And so, time will flow, passing through my open mind
And so, time will flow, passing through my open mind
Methuselah greets another dawn
Entranced by the setting my mind wanders on
To the mountains, to seas long ago
Lost to time
And to rivers
Changed their course long ago
Songs of ravens
Dotting the time
Through echo
And remembering
Everything flows on through time
And the mountains will crumble down to the sea
And the mountains will crumble down to the sea
And the mountains will crumble down to the sea

Lady Of The Moon

See her dancing in the blue twilight
In her robe of soft cosmic white
Primrose, lilies, queen of night
All yearn for her beauty bright, it's true
Lady of the moon
Praise you
Lady of the moon
See her dance upon the silver lake
Shimmering upon the darkened waves
Glimmering, shimmering silver light
All behold her beauty bright, it's true
Lady of the moon
Praise you
Lady of the moon
Warm like an evening in June
My fair lady of the moon
See her dancing in the blue twilight
In her robe of soft cosmic white
Primrose, lilies, queen of night
All behold her beauty bright, it's true
Lady of the moon
Praise you
Lady of the Moon
Warm like an evening in June
My fair lady of the moon
Fair lady of the moon
Fair lady of the moon

River Song
03:37

Crystal waters spring forth
From their earthen shrine
A master sculptor, ever humble
Knows no limits, isn't burdened by time
Gentle river, vengeful river
Bittersweet giver, taker of life
Pebbles tumble, mountains crumble
The river carries on, unbridled by time
In the shallows water races on
Cascading over the rocks
Pebbles tumble, mountains crumble
The river flows on, unbridled by time
The water bubbles, thunder rumbles
Dwarfed by the roar of the falls
In the shallows water races on
Reciting its timeless song
Go on river
As water weathers stone, so too can we change in our time
As water weathers stone, so too can we change in our time
Roll on river, flow on river
Go on river, flow through time
