Azi It is lovely and soft, sort of feels like sitting around a fire, that sort of music, little stories. Beautiful voice, expressive and rich while still precise. Favorite track: River's Gold.

Only Love 03:01
Only love Only love From a place of hurt, was conquered pain From a place of silence, quietened chaos within From a place of sorrow, fears lay to rest And in soul’s turmoil burns stillness From a place of hurt, was conquered pain From a place of silence, quietened chaos within From a place of sorrow, fears lay to rest And in soul’s turmoil burns stillness There is nothing at the heart of it Only love There is nothing at the heart of it Only love Only love Only love

River's Gold 03:12
I never was brave enough, never was strong I made you wait, my love, wait for too long We said all there was to say, til there were no words Once the fire burned bright, now it is gone Well if the wind’s a thousand angels rushing by And the stars and clouds are tales in the sky Oh where is the faith in my heart? There is a story I was once told Of a river that knew true hearts and showed them gold And I wondered if gold there I would see Or would that river know my heart better than me So I built a boat, down the river I go No more struggle, just go with the flow And in the morning, I opened my eyes And around me the river’s gold shone bright Well if the wind’s a thousand angels rushing by And the stars and clouds are tales in the sky Oh where is the faith in my heart? Oh where is the faith in my heart?

Wings 02:08
I was told I was an angel Then always wondered why they left me on Earth I tried to find my way to fit in Something I never seemed to learn Oh why did you leave me here? My heart has filled with fear I have grown so lost And tell me what would you do, if I gave it all up? Do you get to choose, if I win or lose another chance? I will journey to all corners Searching for my wings I left behind Cos every night I dream the same dream Where I leave this Earth and fly Oh why did you let me go? I’ve a raging fire in my soul And you look down With rivers in your heart that could take my fire away I have grown so lost And tell me what would you do, if I gave it all up? Do you get to choose, if I win or lose another chance? Let me fly, or let me die Let me fly

Free Flow 03:39
These old trees, well they take me as I am And my old troubles, well the winds will carry them away, away, away When I grow tired, ain’t gonna work any more Time to rest my mind and my soul, oh my soul Free flow, like the winds blow Free flow, that’s how life goes My heart is worn and I am weary I’ve travelled for so long Searching for a place I may lay to rest Save me from travelling on, on and on Free flow, like the winds blow Free flow, that’s how life goes Oh the rain, the rain It falls so cold Runs right through my soul Falls instead of my own tears Wash away those fears in me Open my eyes, blessed with life The skies, alive Free flow, like the winds blow Free flow, that’s how life goes That’s how Life goes That’s how Life goes.

Ain’t got no soul, got no home Ain’t got no soul, got no home I can keep on running But I’ll always travel alone Too many worries on my mind Too many worries on my mind And all these worries take away from my time Oh, ain’t got no soul, got no home Ain’t got no soul, got no home Heart’s full of sorrow, heart’s full of pain I keep hoping to see blue skies again Heart’s full of sorrow, heart’s full of pain I keep praying to see blue skies again Step by step, stone by stone I’m learning I don’t have to go alone I don’t have to go alone,I don’t have to go alone, to find my soul Step by step, stone by stone I’m learning I don’t have to walk alone, I don’t have to walk alone. I don’t have to walk alone, to find my soul

Come the tide, it will wash me away Start all my trials again Come the sun, it will light up my heart Time to make ready my friends Come the storm, come the dawn Rise from my bed of brambles and thorns Strike a spark, like a fire in the wild It tears down your walls For you are only a child at heart You think you could teach the wolves to howl You believe what you preach is the way Hold close your weapons of war And never see past your crusade But the spirit you hold has a way of its own Only held down so long You were never free, you never wanted to be You thought you could rule here alone Strike a spark, like a fire in the wild It tears down your walls For you are only a child at heart For all my time, and lessons in life It’s taken so long to learn It’s not humble for your heart to ask for less than what it deserves Be generous and go ask for the world. Strike a spark, like a fire in the wild It tears down your walls For you are only a child at heart

Well I’ll go to the woods in the morrow ‘Cos I didn’t make time for them today When I’m away from there too long There’s a sorrow in my Heart I lose my way Go back to that old home of mine To the wilds that haven’t changed with time Where I leave all my troubles behind And the kind Earth heals my soul And the trees they hear my call Help me let the worries go And point me towards home Well in each and every part here I see myself From the meadows and the blossom and the birds It taught me there’s a time for everything in life Not to run ahead of seasons in my thoughts or words Go back to that old home of mine To the wilds that haven’t changed with time Where I leave all my troubles behind And the kind Earth heals my soul And the trees they hear my call Help me let the worries go And point me towards home And so I brave the World again Knowing that the Wild is my friend If I am lost, look to the Stars If I am lost look to the Land Go back to that old home of mine To the wilds that haven’t changed with time Where I leave all my troubles behind And the kind Earth heals my soul And the trees they hear my call Help me let the worries go And point me towards home Carry my heart home

Well I was alone, and I was down I went through life, with a big old frown And then one day, you came my way Made my life sunny, and chased the clouds away And if you should ever get to leaving Well I ask just one thing of you That I can keep a little of your Sun in my Heart So my skies will always be blue Well the Spring is pretty, with the flowers all in bloom And the long Summer days are lovely too And in the cold of Fall and Winter, well I know I’ll be keeping warm with you And if you should ever get to leaving Well I ask just one thing of you That I can keep a little of your Sun in my Heart So my skies will always be blue And if you should ever get to leaving Well I ask just one thing of you That I can keep a little of your Sun in my Heart So my skies will always be blue May I keep a little of your Sun in my Heart, so my skies will always be blue

about

The woods help me find some peace, and these songs return me to the woods. I hope you may find the woods here too.
