Here between us Earth and heaven There are gods here who rule the air Wheeling lazy by the margins a breath is lifted The birds are there So the raven carries night across the day Dusk to dusk Light to light it casts a shadow Across the brilliant sky tonight
That willow tree is me It sways and it bends And that raven that flew Into its arms is you And you my heart
Now the cold gleam of winter's night Is captured by the sea The path of silver leading full west To where my love flies so far from me Taken long from these arms of night To live in daylight a world away And the willow it sways in the west wind That tells of ravens across the sea
That willow tree is me It sways and it bends And that raven that flew Into its arms is you And you, my heart
