Lyrics
Now you've left our garden Too few months had we together My love was never your warden I am a prisoner of the weather Winter is the awful sting For you leaving me alone Now separate paths till spring When together we may roam It begins with our parting kiss You orbit low, I ride the sky We revoke warm summer bliss And I crystallize the tide I drive the City of Sails You are the warmth of life I bringer of ocean swells Winter storms and strife Tai Awatea = incoming tide (tai) carries new knowledge, revealed in light of day (awatea) Te toka tu moana = the rock standing in the ocean Aroha mai, aroha atu = Love towards us, love going out from us Tai Awatea No single season can last Each gives, its own treasure Each a remnant of ages past Each season its own measure Your arc in a distant space Your love whispers from afar Horizon warms in the embrace Of you, its' nearest star Tai Awatea Te toka tu moana Aroha mai, aroha atu Tai Awatea Each of us appointed By Gravity's tight reigns Different heavens have anointed Each of our campaigns Each of our refrains We'll embrace again in spring Our love will then rebound I'll return on feathered wings Equator you go round Round and 'round and Round and 'round yeah! Yeah... (Tai Awatea) We'll embrace again in spring (Ta Toka Tu Moana) Our love will then rebound (Aroha Mai, Aorha Atu) Round and 'round and Round and 'round yeah! Round and 'round Loving forevermore

Hello Ian, it’s been a while since I’d heard any of your stuff. Nice rich bass and key accompaniment intro. I didn’t expect it to take off like it did, but it was a smooth transition to more of an upbeat tempo. I liked the style of the music and the production, also your vocals worked quite well with this piece. The lyrics (at first blush) didn’t look as if they’d fit the melody (But I was wrong) they flowed and interacted perfectly with the music.
