Lovechild

Sleeping in the vagrant forest, dreamin' life was always like this,
Dewfall on our eyes, slowly do we rise,
Takin' in the day, I love you, Lovechild, I love you, oh

Walking through the timeless forest, scent of life warm all around us,
Sunlight in our eyes, we're singing to the skies
Sacred our embrace, I love you, Lovechild, I love you, oh

Lovechild, you called my name, and here I am, I wander with you
Strange life, day by day,all on our own, hidden away
Strange life, led me to you, took me away to wander with you

Creeping shadows shroud the forest
Evening amber sunshine cools us,
Eating from the tree, and drinking from the stream,
Lyin' on the leaves, I love you, Lovechild, I love you, oh

Sleepin' in the vagrant forest, dreamin' life was always like this,
Eating from the tree, and drinking from the stream,
Sacred our embrace, I love you, Lovechild, I love you, oh

The Dancer

I've been a dancer since I was young,
I've had my chances and I've won every one.
Now I dance the night away,
Smiling while the music plays, playing my song.

But there's one boy that I long for,
Who's a long ride on the train away.
Always tugging at my sleeve saying,
"Mama, please don't go again, oh no."

Day after day, I watch as you play,
Touchin' my heart, make me want to stay.
Soon it's time to go away,
Mama dance and people pay, playing their song.

But there's one boy that I long for,
When I go upon the train away.
While I'm dancing I can feel him,
"Mama, please don't go again,
Mama, please don't go again, oh no no."

Little one, please understand, I'm earnin' a living for you,
And when you grow to be a man, you'll see I've done what I could do.

I like to be with you, yes I do,
Do you like dancing, can you sing too?
I bought you a toy guitar,
I come home and hear you are playing a song.

But it's so hard for me to leave you,
To go back on the train away.
When you're cryin' as I'm leavin,
"Mama, please don't go again,
Mama, please don't go again,
Mama, please don't go again,
Mama, please don't go again, oh no no."

The Widow

Every Saturday I go out and search around
For some boy who's gonna take me home again,
And if he really wants me, love me.

Every week I work to make the money that so quickly goes,
I need somebody to help me calculate,
And if he really wants me, love me.
