lyrics

Boulder by boulder we walk over stones to your home

Through truncated rhythm of rain as the hills turn to gold

Songs of the ages that reach to the roots of the earth

And the empty space that breathes in the hour just before

birth

Bless this child she holds the ocean in her hand

And may she walk between the raindrops

that shimmer on the land

Rest in the evening the earth gives us all that we need

Ancestors live not in memory, but in memory's release

And darkness descends on the crowd as songs begin to

rise

Rebel soldiers and the starlight slipping through evening's disguise

Bless this child she holds the ocean in her hand

And may she walk between the raindrops

that shimmer on the land

...and may she walk between the raindrops
that shimmer on the land
