Courtyard Lullaby - Live - 1992 Wxpn's World Cafe 1992, Solo
Wherein, the deep night sky
The stars lie in its embrace
The courtyard still in its sleep
Peace comes over your face
Come to me, it sings
Feel the pulse of the land
The oceans rhythms pull
To hold your heart in its hand
And when the wind draws strong
Across the cypress trees
The nightbirds cease their songs
So gathers memories
Last night you spoke of a dream
Where forests stretched to the east
And each bird sang its song
A unicorn joined in the feast
And in a corner stood
A pomegranate tree
With wild flowers there
No mortal eye could see
I heard an old voice say
Don't go far from this our land
The seasons have their way
No mortal can understand
The stars lie in its embrace
The courtyard still in its sleep
Peace comes over your face
Come to me, it sings
Feel the pulse of the land
The oceans rhythms pull
To hold your heart in its hand
And when the wind draws strong
Across the cypress trees
The nightbirds cease their songs
So gathers memories
Last night you spoke of a dream
Where forests stretched to the east
And each bird sang its song
A unicorn joined in the feast
And in a corner stood
A pomegranate tree
With wild flowers there
No mortal eye could see
I heard an old voice say
Don't go far from this our land
The seasons have their way
No mortal can understand
