By Enya
I walk the maze of moments
but everywhere I turn to begins a new beginning
but never finds a finish.
I walk to the horizon
and there I find another,
it all seems so surprising
and then I find that I know:
Chorus:
You go there you're gone forever,
I go there I'll lose my way.
If we stay here we're not together
Anywhere is....
The moon upon the ocean
is swept around in motion,
but without ever knowing
the reason for its flowing,
in motion on the ocean.
The moon still keeps on moving.
The waves still keep on waving,
and I still keep on going.
I wonder if the stars sign
the life that is to be mine.
And would they let their light shine
enough for me to follow?
I look up to the heavens
but night has clouded over.
No spark of constellation,
no Vela no Orion.
The shells upon the warm sands
have taken from their own lands
the echo of their story
but all I hear are low sounds.
As pillow words are weaving,
and willow waves are leaving.
But should I be believing
that I am only dreaming?
To leave the thread of all time
and let it make a dark line
in hopes that I can still find
the way back to the moment.
I took the turn and turned to
begin a new beginning.
Still looking for the answer
I cannot find the finish.
It's either this or that way.
It's one way or the other.
It should be one direction.
It could be on reflection.
The turn I have just taken,
The turn that I was making.
I might be just beginning,
I might be near the end.

Beautiful song.
The lyrics are both beautiful and frightening. Please call me and let me know it's the first one. I need to hear your voice.
Oh it's not frightening at all, I remember listening to this song as a little girl, and it always made me happy because it talked about the moon and the stars. I picked up the CD at your house on Sunday and when I listened to this song, it brought back good memories. I love it, and it's beautiful!
