Walls

We are not forgotten.
Listen to my heart, look into my eyes.
I have seen the stars falling from the skies.
Listen to my fears, yours will lift and fly.
Let me show you where, I have touched the air.
Stories from the past, each as true as mine.
We can speak at last through the sands of time.

We are not forgotten anymore.

These are things I know, trampled fields of snow
Sheets of falling rain, hope that concurs pain.
Souls that call again in my memory.
Through the veils of light falling on the sea.
Letters wrapped in love, lips pressed in my dreams.
Holy thoughts and brave,  men who laugh and weep

We are not forgotten anymore.

I am the face on the wall,
Spirit of hope ever rising
I am the prayer in your heart for peace.       

Nothing can protects us like a wall.
From our foes and our fears.
Nothing can be broken like a wall.
With our hopes and our tears

We learned all too well, hard as you may try.
There are days you win, there are days you die.
Having seen the war, we can speak of peace.
How we prayed all night for the dawn's release.
Did we all come home, did we turn the page?
There are walls of joy, there are walls of rage.
Walls at which you weep, walls onwhich you dance
Walls made of regret, walls you made by chance.
Walls that break you heart, walls through which you can see.
Walls made in your mind, walls that set you free.

We are not forgotten anymore.

I am the face on the wall,
Spirit of hope ever rising
I am the prayer in your heart for peace.

Weaver Song

She is a weaver
Through her hands the bright thread travels
Blue green water, willows weeping, silver stars
She sings and sighs as the shuttle flies
Through the yarn like a Kerry dancer
Pink and purple velvet red for a lover's bed

Living north of San Francisco
With a man who build his house alone
Living peaceful in the country
The lights of the Golden Gate will lead her home

She is a spinner
In her hands the wooden wheel turns the wool around
The around again
The gypsy from Bolinas sits and plays the mandolin
Faces smile in the firelight of a foggy night

Living north of San Francisco
Sometimes it's nice to be alone
She says it's peaceful where she is living
The lights of the Golden Gate will lead her home

You can see the bridges of the city
Hanging in the air by steel and stone
She says it's peaceful where she's living
The lights of the Golden Gate will lead her home

She is a weaver
Through her hand the bright thread travels
Blue green water, willows weeping, silver stars
She is my sister, the baby born when I was older
Her hands are light, her hair is bright as the summer sun

Living north of San Francisco
Sometimes it's nice to be alone
She says it's peaceful in the country
The lights of the Golden Gate will lead her home
The lights of the Golden Gate will lead her home

Wedding Song

With ribbon of silk and a rainbow of light
With an old fashioned tune so familiar and right
With the planets that turn in eternity's flight
We will dance at your wedding tonight.

Holly Ann, Holly Ann, beautiful bride.
Harvey, your groom, there by your side.
May the rivers you cross be as joyful as wide
And we'll dance at your wedding tonight.

With the Columbine blooms in diamonds of dew,
With something that's old, and something that's new,
With the memory of childhood that calls after you.
We will dance at your wedding tonight.

Holly Ann, Holly Ann, sister of mine.
Harvey, your love, with you entwined.
May you always be joined in spirit and mind.
And we'll dance at your wedding tonight.

Yesterday's sun was eclipsed by the moon.
And today the sunlight beams.
So may your shadows pass in a day.
May you not forget your dreams
With the sunlight that shines and the rivers that bend,
With the seasons returning again and again,
With the primrose, the swallow, the lark, and the wren,
We will dance at your wedding tonight.

Holly Ann, Holly Ann, beautiful bride.
Harvey, your groom, there by your side.
May the rivers you cross be as joyful as wide.
May the Gods and the Goddesses be on your side.
May you always be joyous in spirit and mind.
And we'll dance at your wedding tonight.

Wheel Rolling

Words and Music by Judy Collins

If you will remember this, you are a wheel rolling
You will always find your bliss, you are a wheel rolling
You will be a lion walking, you are a wheel rolling
And the lion meets the dragon, you are a wheel rolling
Kill the demon on the road, you are a wheel rolling
Turn yourself into a child, you are a wheel rolling.

Search the heavens for a sign
From the center of the world
Justice is not ever blind
Rolling like a cloud unfurled.

If you really had compassion, you are a wheel rolling
You would cry and never cease, you are a wheel rolling
If you look for inspiration, you are a wheel rolling
In this world there is no peace, you are a wheel rolling,
You will seek to find nirvana, you are a wheel rolling
Where no pain or sorrow reaches, you are a wheel rolling
You must slay the dragon now, you are a wheel rolling
You are dragon, child and lion, you are a wheel rolling
If you look to find the world, you are a wheel rolling
Look no further than yourself, you are a wheel rolling

Search the heavens for a sign
From the center of the world
Justice is not ever blind
Rolling like a cloud unfurled.

If you seek to kill the devil (you are a wheel rolling)
Every act is good and evil (you are a wheel rolling)
Even devils work for God (you are a wheel rolling)
Even evil turns to good (you are a wheel rolling)

Search the heavens for a sign
From the center of the world
Justice is not ever blind
Rolling like a cloud unfurled.

You will see a cloud of fire (you are a wheel rolling)
And your spirit burning higher (you are a wheel rolling)
Flames of brilliant orange and red (you are a wheel rolling)
Dying lives and living dead (you are a wheel rolling)

Or you will see nothing there (you are a wheel rolling)
As you float in crystal air (you are a wheel rolling)
Meet the dragon in the trees (you are a wheel rolling)
He will bring you to your knees (you are a wheel rolling)

Search the heavens for a sign
From the center of the world
Justice is not ever blind
Rolling like a cloud unfurled.

If you will remember this (you are a wheel rolling)
You will always find your bliss (you are a wheel rolling)
You will be a lion walking (you are a wheel rolling)
And the lion meets the dragon (you are a wheel rolling)
Kill the demon on the road (you are a wheel rolling)
Turn yourself into a child (you are a wheel rolling)
Search the heavens for a sign (you are a wheel rolling)
Rolling from the center of you (you are a wheel rolling)
Justice is not ever blind (you are a wheel rolling)
Rolling like clouds unfurled (you are a wheel rolling).

Whispers in the rain
So quiet you can hardly hear the pain
Sons and daughters of us all
Listen to the call
In the whispers in the rain

Rain comes pouring down
And they cry without a sound
In Gods name have we all failed
Mothers veiled and then unveiled
Hear the whispers in the rain

The war within our heart
Keeps us far apart
Is there nothing we can do
To find peace for me and you

Pray for love today
Drive the tears away
Wrap me in your arms
Could the future still be ours to have
Can we reach beyond the scars

Whispers in the rain
So quiet you can hardly hear the pain
Sons and daughters of us all
Listen to the call
In the whispers in the rain

Rain comes pouring down
And they cry without a sound
In Gods name have we all failed
Mothers veiled and then unveiled
Hear the whispers in the rain

Children of this world
Under every flag unfurled
Show them what they mean to you
Teach them to believe

Whispers in the rain
So quiet you can hardly hear the pain
Sons and daughters of us all
Listen to the call
In the whispers in the rain

Rain comes pouring down
And they cry without a sound
In Gods name have we all failed
Mothers veiled and then unveiled
Hear the whispers in the rain

Silence in the crowd
Everyone too proud
Who will answer for the lives
That are written in their eyes

Whispers in the rain
So quiet you can hardly hear the pain
Sons and daughters of us all
Listen to the call
In the whispers in the rain

Rain comes pouring down
And they cry without a sound
In Gods name have we all failed
Mothers veiled and then unveiled
Hear the whispers in the rain

Wind, Water, Fire And Stone

Words and Music by Judy Collins

A dream came to me at night
When the boats were in the sea
A dream of the black death of earth
Two voices came singing to me.

Wind, water, fire, and stone.
Storms of sand, closing over the sun
Sand, fire, water, and wind
How can we begin again.

But you can't sink a rainbow
In a world that is green
You can't make the night any brighter
By even one star.

Awake, awake, awake.

Oh the rivers are poisoned
And the lakes are gone
The dolphins are dying
And the whales have lost their song.

But you can't sink a rainbow
In a world that is green
You can't make the night any brighter
By even one star.

Awake, awake, awake.

Once I saw a man
Who said he'd seen a flock of nightengales
Once a child recalled the sound of rain
Like silver angel's wings.

Like a lost and homeless thing
The planet spins her way through space.
Drugged and battered like a woman
Who can't recall her face.

Remembering the way she used to shine
Rivers in the sea
Shine, herons on the wing, 
And hear the crickets sing
A million forest birds
The sea her mantle green
Like a banner of bright hair
Around her shoulders

But you can't sink a rainbow
In a world that is green
You can't make the world any brighter
By even one star.

Awake, awake, awake.

Wind, water, fire, and stone.
Storms of sand, closing over the sun
Sand, fire, water, and wind
How can we begin again.

But you can't sink a rainbow
In a world that is green
You can't make the night any brighter
by even one star.

Awake, awake, awake.

A dream came to me at night
When the boats were in the sea
A dream of the bright death of earth.

Wings Of Angels

Wings of angels tears of saints
Prayers and promises won't bring you back
Come to me in dreams again
Wings of angels tears of saints

I lost you on a winter's day
In that cold city far away
A city by a river deep
With promises you could not keep
A place where you had gone to try
A place where you had longed to fly
A city smiling when you cried
A city sleeping when you died

Wings of angels tears of saints
Prayers and promises won't bring you back
Come to me in dreams again
Wings of angels tears of saints

In that cathedral by the hill
We stood and smiled in happier days
The fields along the river's edge
You fished and traveled hungrily
Your light burned in that sunny sky
Your voice above the water rang
I'd give it up give all I have
For one more chance to hear you sing

Wings of angels tears of saints
Prayers and promises won't bring you back
Come to me in dreams again
Wings of angels tears of saints

Child of thunder in the dark child whose voice was like a lark
Child whose spirits lifted hearts child of many beauties

When the birds flock to the south
When the wind calls to the north
You are in the falling snow
You are beauty going forth
You are heat and you are light
Sun above the mountain's peak
I would give the sun and moon
Once more just to hear you speak

Wings of angels tears of saints
Prayers and promises won't bring you back
Come to me in dreams again
Wings of angels tears of saints

Prayers and Promises
