[ti:Courtyard Lullaby] [ar:Loreena McKennitt] [al:The Visit] [by:Van] [00:00.00]Loreena McKennitt - Courtyard Lullaby [00:15.00] [00:30.05]Wherein the deep night sky [00:36.16]The stars lie in its embrace [00:42.09]The courtyard still in its sleep [00:48.23]And peace comes over your face. [03:13.19][00:54.72]"Come to me," it sings [03:19.09][01:01.00]"Hear the pulse of the land [03:24.35][01:07.08]The ocean's rhythms pull [03:30.66][01:12.90]To hold your heart in its hand." [01:19.81]When the wind draws strong [01:25.41]Across the cypress trees [01:31.71]The nightbirds cease their songs [01:37.59]So gathers memories. [01:45.86] [01:47.20]Last night you spoke of a dream [01:53.83]Where forests stretched to the east [02:00.11]And each bird sang its song [02:06.58]A unicorn joined in a feast [02:13.42]And in a corner stood [02:20.03]A pomegranate tree [02:25.93]With wild flowers there [02:31.85]No mortal eye could see [02:38.31] [02:47.07]Yet still some mystery befalls [02:53.47]Sure as the cock crows at morn [02:59.95]The world in stillness keeps [03:06.15]The secret of babes to be born [03:38.78] [03:47.07]I heard an old voice say [03:54.08]"Don't go far from the land [04:01.29]The seasons have their way [04:08.27]No mortal can understand."
