Lyrics
Lara Clare Craig Sinclair (2006), released independently in 2007 Twenty five years I’ve been riding on that mule Ploughed the barren fields into rows of lonely lines A vigil in the desperate dark the night sky only knows The hours I waited for that light to shine In the night the old grey man, finally found my door A single candle in the window burning low He melted through the walls and into my restless sleep And spoke into my dreams its time to go He holds my shaking hands and guides me through the lonely dark To a dawn that paints the wild lands golden green There’s a sleeping magic here that rests across the ancient hills And I never want to wake up from this dream He points across the plains to where you’re running with the wolves I see you all at once then everywhere There’s terror and there’s beauty in these things that can’t be tamed And this is where I find you Lara Clare I came to you in tethers, staggered in on bleeding feet Drank from your cup to soothe my burning fears We stood together faced the demons at the fiery gates And quenched the raging flames with both our tears A land of freedom looms ahead beyond these heavy seas Though I’m floating on the whisper of a prayer I’m guided by your light and if I ever reach the shore I pray that you’ll be waiting Lara Clare Twenty five years I’ve been riding on that mule Ploughed the barren fields into rows of lonely lines A vigil in the desperate dark the night sky only knows The hours I waited for that light to shine
