Dante's Prayers-Loreena McKennitt

[01:52.25]Music and Lyrics: Loreena McKennitt [02:02.25]When the dark wood fell before me [02:07.06]And all the paths were overgrown [02:12.22]When the priests of pride say there is no other way [02:17.17]I tilled the sorrows of stone [02:22.17]I did not believe because I could not see [02:26.86]Though you came to me in the night [02:31.72]When the dawn seemed forever lost [02:35.19]You showed me your love in the light of the stars [02:41.28]Cast your eyes on the ocean [02:46.11]Cast your soul to the sea [02:50.82]When the dark night seems endless [02:55.62]Please remember me [03:02.86]Then the mountain rose before me [03:07.42]By the deep well of desire [03:11.94]From the fountain of forgiveness [03:16.59]Beyond the ice and fire [03:21.44]Cast your eyes on the ocean [03:26.08]Cast your soul to the sea [03:30.71]When the dark night seems endless [03:35.75]Please remember me [04:17.97]Though we share this humble path, alone [04:22.50]How fragile is the heart [04:27.28]Oh give these clay feet wings to fly [04:31.26]To touch the face of the stars [04:36.57]Breathe life into this feeble heart [04:41.39]Lift this mortal veil of fear [04:46.07]Take these crumbled hopes, etched with tears [04:49.85]We'll rise above these earthly cares [04:55.48]Cast your eyes on the ocean [05:00.12]Cast your soul to the sea [05:04.68]When the dark night seems endless [05:09.58]Please remember me [05:14.69]Please remember me...
