SWEETEST SONG
(Laura Powers/Chris Pelcer)
I still see your eyes sometimes
When shadows darken the sun
I rattle the walls, my love
For the endless rain to be gone
With a wave you are by my side
Like a kiss from on high
Fill the emptiness with your words
Giving me wings so my spirit can fly
Follow the sweetest song
Rise over treetops to greet the dawn
Dance as your heart plays on
Long may your dream be your island
A harbor to rest the soul
Fair winds to calm the sea
When your heart leads the journey, love
You will have all you need
Follow the sweetest song
Rise over treetops to greet the dawn
Dance as your heart plays on
Long may your dream be your island
Someday you’ll find your dream
Paradise meant to be
Long before this world ever begun
We've been longing for our hearts to be one
Follow the sweetest song
Rise over treetops to greet the dawn
Dance as your heart plays on
Long may your dream be your island

BEYOND THE PALE
(Laura Powers/John Tirro)
There is a line around my soul
A place where I dare not go
Tonight my heart sets sail
Far beyond the pale
He blew in from the sea
Bringing tales from the mainland
Of lands where silk was gold
His eyes were afire
His voice held me spellbound
With the ruby-rich unknown
Thought I looked everywhere
But now my journey has begun
For I've discovered
There is a line around my soul
A place where I dare not go
Tonight my heart sets sail
Far beyond the pale
Then he sang of the sea
And of beautiful maidens
He smiled and bowed to me
Thought I looked everywhere
But now my journey has begun
For I've discovered
There is a line around my soul
A place where I dare not go
Tonight my heart sets sail
Far beyond the pale

A HEART IN WINTER
(Laura Powers)
Je donnerais mon esprit
Donnerais mon âme
A l'obscure saison
Pour t'avoir prés de moi
Que reste-t-il encore
De mon coeur qui se fane?
Peut être un pâle rayon
Dans le silence du froid
A heart in winter
Can't love, can't feel
A dream so tender
Won't grow, won't heal
Without you, without you
I can't fight the chill
Without you, without you
I wait for you still
Une vision, une colombe
L'espérance de l'amour
S'élance de mes doigts
Pour te crier "reviens!"
Volera jusqu’ à toi
Pour guider ton retour
Oui, je donnerais tout
Pour reprendre ta main
A heart in winter
Can't love, can't feel
A dream so tender
Won't grow, won't heal
Without you, without you
I can't fight the chill
Without you, without you
I wait for you still

ANSWER ME WITH SILENCE
(Laura Powers/Dwight Liles)
When my search is fruitless
And my spirit pines for rest
Setting sun and frozen field
Answer me with silence
Fill with light my longing soul
As the chill of winter grows
Tell me what the wide moors know
Answer me with silence
Say not your thoughts
Say nothing at all
You, my love, who know me well
Touch me where my true heart dwells
Where there are no words to say
Answer me with silence
When my search is fruitless
And my spirit pines for rest
All things I hold dearest
Answer me with silence

IN THE ARMS OF THE MILKY WAY
(Laura Powers/David Lloyd)
Riding on a comet's tail
She tumbled into life
She reaches up
For a handful of light
Touches it to earth to warm the night
The voices on the wind
Celestial sound
Whispering heaven's here and now
The moon, the tide
The sea of endless sky
She dances with a universe in play
She lights the dark
She knows she is a spark
Even in this new world she feels safe
In the arms of the Milky Way
Orion sneezed and the fourth star fell
Shifted his sword and notched his belt
He caught her laughing
And they both smiled
They felt the spell of a lover's night
The moon, the tide
The sea of endless sky
She dances with a universe in play
She lights the dark
She knows she is a spark
Even in this new world she feels safe
In the arms of the Milky Way
Riding the spiral through light years of stars
Forever's waiting in her backyard
The moon, the tide
The sea of endless sky
She dances with a universe in play
She lights the dark
She knows she is a spark
Even in this new world she feels safe
In the arms of the Milky Way

LONG WAY DOWN
(Laura Powers)
She was the rock we all leaned on
She was the one we couldn't do without
Somehow I thought she'd always be here
Of her love there was no doubt
I wish I could say time's made me stronger
I'd like to say I've grown somehow
But then I fall in the hole she left behind
And don't you know it's a long way down
She was the sun that made my world turn
A steady hand, a ready smile
And though I have the sweetest memories
My heart is heavy all the while
I wish I could say time's made me stronger
I'd like to say I've grown somehow
But then I fall in the hole she left behind
And don't you know it's a long way down

THE GODDESS OF THE SEA MIST
(Laura Powers/Sharon Cort)
Late at night on the ocean
Her presence felt in times of need
When dangers arise just close your eyes
She comes to you in dreams
She sings and the waters glimmer
She sighs and your sails catch wind
Steady on your course, give in to the force
A journey of wonder and bliss
Behold the goddess of the sea mist
Stars will shine ever brighter
Moonbeams now dance in the mist
A soft jasmine wind brushes your skin
Her caress, her lover's kiss
She sings and the waters glimmer
She sighs and your sails catch wind
Steady on your course, give in to the force
A journey of wonder and bliss
Behold the goddess of the sea mist

BELTHANE FIRES
(Laura Powers)
Oh the fire of Belthane nights
High, high the firelight
And my love I’ll meet you there
The turn of May the sweet night air
Oh, the spell the magic strewn
The lovers’ kiss beneath the moon
And I know my hearts desire
Will reflect in the Belthane fire
A circle cast a circle drawn
A blackthorn bush a willow wand
And oh, my love there is no sleep
For in this dark my eyes can see
By this night, by yon oak tree
By the fires of Belthane come to me

SISTERS OF THE WIND
(Laura Powers/Chris Pelcer)
Sweet abandon
Goddess of air
Tangled starlight
Trails from her hair
In the silence of time forgotten
Before the garden of man
Riding currents with all creation
She played out God's hand
Wings of fortune
Beckon the dawn
Cross fields of heather
They circle the moors
Somewhere over the mists of morning
Beyond the mountains of sky
They'll pass right through your dreams
With a whispering sigh
They fly graceful and bold
The four winds of heaven
Rise shining like gold
Their world knows no end
Forever sisters of the wind
And willow
Alder and ash
Groves of glory
Bow as they pass
East and west of the mystic crossroads
North and south of the sea
They'll find and guide you along
If you believe
They fly graceful and bold
The four winds of heaven
They rise shining like gold
Their world knows no end
Forever sisters of the wind

THE PIPES OF INISHMORE
(Laura Powers/Bob Halligan, Jr.)
There over Galway bay
Like jewels in the sea
The isle of my early years
Is calling out to me
And just for a moment
I'm on your rocky shore
With my love beside me
and I can hear the pipes of Inishmore
Twas June and the yellow blooms
Covered all the hills
A piper on the highest cliff
Made our hearts stand still
And just for a moment
I'm on your rocky shore
With my love beside me
and I can hear the pipes of Inishmore
Calling, Calling, calling me home
Calling, calling, calling me home
When silence of winter comes
And all is gray and brown
I close my eyes and lift my head
To hear the sweetest sound
And just for a moment
I'm on your rocky shore
With my love beside me
and I can hear the pipes of Inishmore
Just for a moment
My heart skips and soars
Forever remaining
Where I can hear the pipes of Inishmore
