Summer Rain
And I know that I’ll see you again ... Now I know that I've heard that line — or something just like it — before. |

Hello everyone, thanks for all your efforts so far!  Now here are the lyrics for my favourite song on the album... except that until today i didn't know if it was my favourite or not, there are six others very close behind or level! This is a transcription after listening to the song several times and is subject to error - especially where marked in italics and with [?]. It's what Roger and I both came up with - completely independently. Alternative suggestions for the tricky bits will, of course, be considered - especially from natives of New Zealand!  Cheers, Dave |

Thanks Ross! Have you realized how they don't have the lyrics to her original songs?  Dori |

Thanks Ross. We have many of the lyrics (from WITA to Odyssey) at HWI. The Lyrics Menu is HERE. We hope to add the Treasure lyrics soon.  Roger |

Here are the lyrics for Whispering Hope:
Soft as the voice of an Angel
Breathing a lesson unheard
Hope with a gentle persuasion
Whispers her comforting word
Wait, till the darkness is over
Wait, till the tempest is done
Hope for the sunshine tomorrow
After the shower is gone
Whispering hope
Oh, how welcome thy voice
Making my heart
In its sorrow rejoice
Whispering hope
Oh, how welcome thy voice
Making my heart
In its sorrow rejoice

Nada SouSou (English version) from the Japanese Edition.
BEGIN & Ryoko Moriyama
English Lyrics: Suzi Kim
Turning the pages of old photographs
I whisper thanks to each and every one
Deep in my heart you have come, come to Live
Sure as the sun to see me through
Come rain or shine however the day may be
You shelter me with your smile
However far your memories may fade
Traces of you I hope to find
Then you appear and I drown in my own tears
I wish on a star, the first star of the night
You'll find me here every evening of the year
As twilight approaches I look to the sky
Searching for you with all of my heart
In grief and joy I long for you and your smile
Hoping you feel the way I do
If only you could find me from where you are
I do believe somewhere in time
I do believe I will see you once again
Come rain or shine however the day may be
You shelter me with your smile
But as each memory of you fades away
I'm so alone longing for you
You're on my mind as I drown in my own tears
Missing you so I'm missing you so
You're on my mind as I drown in my own tears
Roger

The Last Rose of Summer - duet with Meav from Celtic Woman
'Tis the last rose of summer left blooming alone
All her lovely companions are faded and gone
No flower of her kindred, no rosebud is nigh
To reflect back her blushes and give sigh for sigh
I'll not leave thee, thou lone one, to pine on the stem
Since the lovely are sleeping, go sleep thou with them
Thus kindly I scatter thy leaves o'er the bed
Where thy mates of the garden lie scentless and dead
So soon may I follow when friendships decay
And from love's shining circle the gems drop away
When true hearts lie withered and fond ones are flown
Oh who would inhabit this bleak world alone?
This bleak world alone

I believe this is on the UK Odyssey, but here we are:
Scarborough Fiar
Are you going to Scarborough Fair?
Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme.
Remember me to one who lives there.
He once was a true love of mine.
Tell him to make me a cambric shirt.
Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme.
Without no seam, nor needlework.
Then he'll be a true love of mine.
Tell him to buy me an acre of land.
Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme.
Between salt water and the sea strand.
Then he'll be a true love of mine.
Are you going to Scarborough Fair?
Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme.
Remember me to one who lives there.
He once was a true love of mine.

I believe this is also on the UK Odyssey with that gorgeous video she created for it, but for the rest of the world....more lyrics.....
The Water is Wide
The water is wide, I cannot get over
Neither have I wings to fly
Give me a boat that can carry two
And both shall row, my love and I
Where love is planted O there it grows
It grows and blossoms like a rose
It has a sweet and pleasant smell
No flower on Earth can it excel
A ship there is and she sails the sea
She's loaded deep as deep can be
But not so deep as the love I'm in
I know not if I sink or swim
Oh love is gentle and love is kind
Sweet as a flower when first it is new
But love grows old and waxes cold
And fades away like the morning dew
Absolutely beautiful!!!
Dori

Le Notte Del Silenzio
Pages that I wrote with you
They still remain
Words do not change
I hold them near
Echoing inside my mind
Are thoughts of you
They pull me through
Each troubled time
The melody I hear
Is ringing pure and clear
Le notte del silenzio
Per te adesso canto
Ricordi d'un perduto amore
Che io rivivro
Fino a trovare te
Sara un incanto
Sara fermare il tempo
E dolce vivere di te
E nel silenzio un canto
Silent nights I sing for you
Each one a call
Each one is more
Than I can bear
Holding out to see your smile
It lights the world
Your soul unfurled
Covers my fear
On gentle winds they wing
They know it's for you I sing

Thanks ZENCAT. Seeing the lyrics to Le Notte Del Silenzio written down changes the whole song for me. I've been listening to it for weeks but not quite taken it in, I have the attention span of a goldfish or an ostrich i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gifNow that I see the whole song written out I realise how beautiful it is. wow. I can hardly believe how deep some of these songs run. Which brings me to the question Why don't they include the lyrics with the CD. I suppose I will just have to get the Japanese version with Nada SouSou on it, the lyrics to that look great too. But I've never heard it. A little something to look forward too. Anyone know if the lyrics are included on the Japanese Version ? Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee......................................................... comet |

Well, make your mind up - which?  Indeed, thank you Zencat for the 'Le Notte' lyrics. Comet, I assume one reason why the lyrics are not included in the CD is to keep production costs down but yes, they are included in the Japanese version. Roger |

I won't have any excuse now for humming the bits that I don't know
