This song was inspired from an image in a book by Sheri S. Tepper. The books is Gibbon's Decline and Fall. It's an incredible book that speaks a lot about what we're doing to each other and to the planet. At any rate, at one point in the book, one of the characters talks about people dancing on sun-warmed rocks. I just loved the joy inherent in that image and so I decided to write a song about it. I hope that it comes even close to doing justice to the joyful abandon that image implies. So, picture yourself dancing on sun-warmed rocks with your true love.

I chronicle the mysteries of moon drenched shores on seven seas
I watch you move in firelight on the feather touch of a whispering breeze
And we'll dance on sun-warmed rocks
Arms stretched to the sky
Heads thrown back in laughter
Sing joy far and wide

And we'll take our freedom now
Leave our fear behind
Claim our everafter
Arms and souls entwined

We'll glide and soar on falcon's wings and ride the clouds to seek the truth we have dared
We move as one palm touching palm, knowing secrets of adventures shared

Chorus

The opening of buds in spring to breathe luminescent air is the blossoming of the soul
We'll lie and bask in soft twilight at the first star's birth in the night sky's bowl

chorus (three times)
