I Become the Moon
I remember yesterday
When I become the moon
How all the stars came out to play
We danced away the gloom
Circled 'round the ring of stones
Before they fell in ruin
I can hear our voices still
When I become the moon
High Diana ruled the wood
Traces still remain
Shared the wisdom and the herb
Shared the joy and pain
Echoes of life's passion play
Still haunt the bride and groom
But they'll be wed again someday
When I become the moon
Soldiers of the holy war
Holy greed command
Claimed the Earth and all her shores
Stole Diana's land
But in my heart there lingers still
The dark of her perfume
I drink the earthy wine until
I become the moon
All that's left is history
And Diana's blood and bone
Fragments of a mystery
Her story is our own
But undercover of the stars
Her secret is exhumed
I bow before her beauty now
And I become the moon
