SONG LYRICS
BLACK ANGEL I was born in the sunshine and grew old in the rain. I knew laughter and freedom until I knew the chain. My mother was the full moon, my father was the grain. My sister was the singing, my brother the praying. Though they buried me in the land of the white, I'm a black angel. I grew tall like the cotton and as wide as the corn. Had me a son and daughter, dead before they were born. Set fire to the killing fields, ran from the hunting horn. My grave is every country that turned my rose to thorn. Though the holy gates of heaven are pearly white, I'm a black angel. I was born in the sunshine and grew old in the rain. I knew laughter and freedom until I knew the chain. My mother was the full moon, my father was the grain. My sister was the singing, my brother the praying. Though they buried me in the land of the white, I'm a black angel. | FAR AWAY
All the leaves have blown away, far away, far away. All the birds have flown away, far away, far away. Summer was a moment of loving in the sand, Autumn was a moment of walking hand in hand, of talking of our plans for tomorrow. All the tears have blown away, far away, far away. Memories have flown away, far away, far away. Winter was a moment of dancing in the snow, Spring-time was a moment of having to let go, of having to say no to tomorrow. Far away, so far away. HIGH PRIESTESS OF THE SUN She comes in carnivals of colours, surrounded by her lovers, all falling at her feet. And then, with hands and arms so slender, And with a look so tender, she starts the tribal beat. My high priestess of the morning, high priestess of the evening, high priestess of the sun. My high priestess of the morning, high priestess of the evening, high priestess of the sun. Inside the earth a voice is singing and temple bells are ringing the rhythm of her dance. Serene, she is the lover of lovers, she is the mother of mothers, who wakes us from our trance. My high priestess of the morning, high priestess of the evening, high priestess of the sun. My high priestess of the morning, high priestess of the evening, high priestess of the sun. My high priestess of the morning, high priestess of the evening, high priestess of the sun. My high priestess of the morning, high priestess of the evening, high priestess of the sun.
