Music and Lyrics by Loreena McKennitt
When the moon on a cloud cast night
Shone above the tree tops' height
You sang me of some distant past
That made my heart beat strong and fast
Now I know I'm home at last
You offered me an eagle's wing
That to the sun, I might soar and sing
And if I heard the owl's cry
Into the forest I would fly
And in its darkness find you by
So our love's not a simple thing
Nor our truths unwavering
Like the moon's pull on the tide
Our fingers touch, our hearts collide
I'll be a moonsbreath from your side
I'll be a moonsbreath from your side
I'll be a moonsbreath from your side
