Breaths
Sweet Honey in the Rock – from Selections 1976-1988
Acoustic Voice
Listen more often to things than to beings
Listen more often to things than to beings
Tis’ the ancestors’ breath
When the fire’s voice is heard
Tis’ the ancestor’s breath
In the voice of the waters
Ah — wsh Ah — wsh
Those who have died have never, never left
The dead are not under the earth
They are in the rustling trees
They are in the groaning woods
They are in the crying grass
They are in the moaning rocks
The dead are not under the earth
Listen more often to things than to beings
Listen more often to things than to beings
Tis’ the ancestors’ breath
When the fire’s voice is heard
Tis’ the ancestor’s breath
In the voice of the waters
Ah — wsh Ah — wsh
Those who have did have never, never left
The dead have a pact with the living
They are in the woman’s breast
They are in the wailing child
They are with us in our homes
They are with us in this crowd
The dead have a pact with the living
Listen more often to things than to beings
Listen more often to things than to beings
Tis’ the ancestors’ breath
When the fire’s voice is heard
Tis’ the ancestor’s breath
In the voice of the waters
Ah — wsh Ah — wsh

A Woman’s Love
Therese Edell – from Women’s Faces Plus
Written by Alix Dobkin
Acoustic Guitar & Voice
Because she’s a woman
I didn’t think I loved her
So unexpected we just stoood and smiled And I felt so fine
And it was so right inside
But how could I know I loved her
Because she’s a woman
Because she’s a woman
Confusion in my feelings
I tried to name it everything but love
But like a magic dream
It would not be turned aside
But suddenly and warmly it held me Because she’s a woman
Because she’s a woman
She doesn’t try to change me
She knows and understands a woman’s ways And I feel so free
To be what she sees in me
It’s so easy to be her lover
Because she’s a woman
I realize a woman’s place is my home
And I know that we’ve always been in love And so it will be for life
Because I’m a woman
A way was laid up for me
I’ve always thought I need a man to love And all the men I’ve known
Were as loving as they could be
There’s no man that can match her beauty Because she’s a woman
And she feels so much lust, we touch
A woman’s love

Eu sei que vou te amar
Irene Farrera – from Alma Latina
Sung in Portuguese | Acoustic Guitar & Voice
Eu sei que vou te amar
Por toda a minha vida eu vou te amar
Em cada despedida eu vou te amar Desesperadamente
Eu sei que vou te amar
E cada verso meu será pra te dizer
Que eu sei que vou te amar
Por toda a minha vida
Eu sei que vou chorar
A cada ausência tua eu vou chorar
Mas cada volta tua há de apagar
O que essa ausência tua me causou
Eu sei que vou sofrer
A eterna desventura de viver
A espera de viver ao lado teu
Por toda a minha vida
Eu sei que vou chorar
A cada ausência tua eu vou chorar
Mas cada volta tua há de apagar
O que essa ausência tua me causou
Eu sei que vou sofrer
A eterna desventura de viver
A espera de viver ao lado teu
Por toda a minha vida
I know I’m going to love you.
For all my life I’m going to love you
In every farewell I will love you Desperately
I know I’m going to love you.
And every verse of mine will tell you
That I know I’m going to love you
For all my life
I know I’m going to cry
With every absence of you I’m going to cry But every turn of yours has to go out
What this absence of you caused me
I know I’m going to suffer
The eternal misfortune of living
Waiting to live next to you
For all my life
I know I’m going to cry
With every absence of you I’m going to cry But every turn of yours has to go out
What this absence of you caused me
I know I’m going to suffer
The eternal misfortune of living
Waiting to live next to you
For all my life

Say Goodbye
Ann Reed – from Timing Is Everything
Acoustic Guitar & Voice
Time, Time. You’ve got to give it time
That’s what they say not knowing it’s a lie
I smile and tell them I’m all right
But I will not say goodbye.
There are days when, I think that I may drown As this constancy of sorrow reaches high tide There are places where I feel you all around I listen for you as the night rolls in
Time. Time, that’s all I have is time
And I will not say goodbye
(guitar interlude)
Try, Try. Promise you will try,
They say as they’re returning to their lives.
I find I have the half a mind
And I will not say goodbye
There are days when, all I want to do
Is be with you wherever souls are carried
I hear you saying this world can be so cruel And all this seems too beautiful to me
My light – you are my last light
And I will not say goodbye.
My light – you are my last light
And I will not say goodbye.
