O light the candle, John
The daylight has almost gone
The birds have sung their last
The bells call all to mass
Sit here by my side
For the night is very long
There's something I must tell
Before I pass along
I joined the brotherhood
My books were all to me
I scribed the words of God
And much of history
Many a year was I
Perched out upon the sea
The waves would wash my tears
The wind, my memory
I'd hear the ocean breathe
Exhale upon the shore
I knew the tempest's blood
Its wrath I would endure
And so the years went by
Within my rocky cell
With only a mouse or bird
My friend; I loved them well
And so it came to pass
I'd come here to Romani
And many a year it took
Till I arrived here with thee
On dusty roads I walked
And over mountains high
Through rivers running deep
Beneath the endless sky
Beneath these jasmine flowers
Amidst these cypress trees
I give you now my books
And all their mysteries
Now take the hourglass
And turn it on its head
For when the sands are still
'Tis then you'll find me dead
O light the candle, John
The daylight has almost gone
The birds have sung their last
The bells call all to mass
So Soulful So Soothing !! A Song to be Treasured forever!!
This song always make me cry my eyes out and moves something very nostalgic in my heart...
You are not alone with that experience. Loreena McKennit has the ability to forge mystic longing into sound.
This song by this lady is one of my favorites 🤗🤠🤭🦄🦋💌🎀🎊🎉🎁
Loreena your voice and your music takes me to another universe, to another dimension. Listening to you is an out of body experience. I wish I would one day be able to see you live in a concert.
One of her best songs
For me, this is truly the single greatest song of all time.
Beautifull song
Will to rise
She's really a great musician and singer.
Very nice
Has anyone heard the "Live in Paris" version?
