Spiral Time
2011, Inger Woest
Each song is
A bead on a necklace
A flower in a bouquet
A moment in time
Music and rhyme
A dot on a line
A line, a thread
Weaving in and out
DNA
Milky Way
Twisting, turning
Far away
Skipping rope
Playing guitar
Where we come from
Who we are
Watch sorrow
Hold pain
Broken vows
Same refrain
Here and now
A drop of rain
Spinning wheels
Beneath a train
Where she stops
Nobody knows
Ebb and flow
The days unfold
I was young
But now I’m old
Seasons turn
And now it’s cold
Snowflakes fall
Onto the ground
Like a compass
Round and round
Swirling, twirling
Vast and vaster
Whirling, hurling
Fast and faster
Weaving in and out
A line, a thread
A dot on a line
Music and rhyme
A moment in time
A flower in a bouquet
A bead on a necklace
Each song is
Wishing Well
Lyrics/music: Inger Woest

Wishing well, wishing well
Make it better
Wishing well, wishing well
Cast me a spell
I can’t stop, I can’t stop
I can’t stop crying
Make me stop, make me stop
Make me stop crying
I wish you well, wish you well
And wait for the healing
I know I fell, please don’t tell
Wish me well
I’ll let you go, let you go
Let you go now
I’ll let you go, let you go
Let you go now
Un loup sur une passerelle
À mi chemin
Un loup sur une passerelle
Rencontre son destin
Il n’avance pas, il ne recule pas
Il ne bouge pas, il est figé
Il voit la lune, il voit la chaumière
Dans la brume, liberté
Une louve sur une passerelle
À mi chemin
Une louve sur une passerelle
Rencontre son destin
Elle n’avance pas, elle ne recule pas
Elle ne bouge pas, elle est figée
Elle voit la lune, elle voit la chaumière
Dans la brume, liberté
Ils n’avancent pas, ils ne reculent pas
Ils ne bougent pas, ils sont figés
Ils voient la lune, ils voient la chaumière
I can’t stop, I can’t stop
I can’t stop crying
Make me stop, make me stop
Make me stop crying
I can’t stop, I can’t stop
I can’t stop crying
Make me stop, make me stop
Make me stop crying
I Am Leaving
Lyrics/music: Inger Woest November

I am leaving, I am leaving
I am leaving today
I am leaving, I am leaving
And there’s nothing more to say
I am grieving, I am grieving
I am grieving today
I am grieving, but I’m still leaving
You know I wanted to stay
You said, “Listen”
You said,
“Listen I got too much to do
I really don’t have any
Time for you
I got places to go
I got people to see
I got new songs to write
I want to make it this year
Well, I know I said I love you
And that much is true
But I don’t want another baby
And I can’t marry you
It’s not your fault, it’s not my fault
It’s just a change of plans
I wanna be alone again
I wanna be a free man”
A free man
I remember, I remember
When we sat in your car
At the foot of the mountain
Under the stars
And the snow fell, and the snow fell
On our kisses so warm
You held me and I held you
Beneath the winter storm
I am leaving, I am leaving
I am leaving today
I am leaving, I am leaving
And there’s nothing more to say
I am grieving, I am grieving
I am grieving today
I am grieving, but I’m still leaving
You know I wanted to stay
I am grieving, but I’m still leaving
You know
I wanted to stay
