Written for and dedicated to Dawn Isodora (http://dawnisidora.com/) in thanks for her beautiful beads and her wonderful awesome self. Thank you for being part of my life x
She searches the world for the perfect bead
To suit her purpose her devotional need
Sews them together with such loving care
A divine gift for someone to wear
Shares them with pride her heart open wide
But then comes the part that she likes the least
Someone enquires how much for this piece
What price can I put on love?
Does it have to cost the stars above?
I work to live but I live to serve
What price do I deserve?
What price can I put on love?
Does it have to cost the stars above?
I work to live but I live to serve
What price do I deserve?
She holds herself with such loving grace
Shares it all within sacred space
Gives all she can she has so much to share
With her community and others who care
A pillar so strong her arms so long
And when people ask why she gives so much
She smiles and says with a whispered hush
What price can I put on love?
Does it have to cost the stars above?
I work to live but I live to serve
What price do I deserve?
What price can I put on love?
Does it have to cost the stars above?
I work to live but I live to serve
What price do I deserve?
Her beautiful beads call out to me
Her heart, her will and devotion I see
But there is no price or tag anywhere
So I seek her out to ask how much for her fare
Her face starts to sink I start to think
Money’s too cold and it’s just not enough
So I give you this song and it’s filled with love
Cause what price can you put on love?
Does it have to cost the stars above?
You work to live but you live to serve
And love’s the price that you deserve
What price can we put on love?
Does it have to cost the stars above?
We work to live but we live to serve
And love’s the price that we deserve
What price can we put on love?
Does it have to cost the stars above?
We work to live but we live to serve
And love’s the price that we deserve
Yes love’s the price that we deserve
Written for and dedicated to my beloved brother F on the renewal of his vows
Walk with me and take my hand And I’ll step you through the seasons on a tour Grande Spring and Summer Autumn and through winter too Such secrets that I hold and I’ll share them all with you
Walk with me and let’s go right now We can open up this door I will show you how It may not seem so now but I’m offering you a choice You can remain silent or you can find your voice
Persephone you whispered Persephone That’s what you called when you first encountered me You wanted truth and knowledge you wanted to be free So I held out my hand and I drew you to me
Walk with me through the realms I love The one that’s down below and the one that’s up above Take a look around and tell me what you see Tear that veil from your eyes and such visions are released
Walk with me through the darkest depths You think you’ve hit the bottom but you haven’t been there yet No matter how far you fall I always will be there Just hold out your hand and you’ll know how much I care
I remember long ago when I was like you were then All young and innocent till he snatched me from my mother’s heart Just like I snatched you from yours When you whispered
Persephone you whispered Persephone That’s what you called when you first encountered me You wanted truth and knowledge you wanted to be free So I held out my hand and I drew you to me
So walk with me and take my hand And I’ll step you through the seasons on a tour Grande Spring and Summer Autumn and through winter too Such secrets that I hold and I’ll share them all with you
Walk with me and let’s go right now We can open up this door I will show you how It may not seem so now but I’m offering you a choice You can remain silent or you can find your voice
Persephone you whispered Persephone That’s what you called when you first encountered me You wanted truth and knowledge you wanted to be free So I held out my hand and I drew you to me
Persephone you whispered Persephone That’s what you called when you first encountered me You wanted truth and knowledge you wanted to be free So I held out my hand and I drew you to me
