about

A fantastical fairy tale ballad of found and lost love.

lyrics

[Verse 1]
Long ago in a land unseen
Near a village ruled by no king or queen
A forest stood with a beating heart
A girl was born bom a branch’s bark

[Verse 2]
Her hair was black with the soot of blood
With eyes of bronze and a face unflawed
A cool, light step, and her skin was fair
The smell of the autumn breeze on her air

[Chorus 1]
Her breath is warm, and her voice is fire
She sings to me, so let the flames climb higher
Her heart’s a puzzle and her love’s a trove
The girl who lives in the ashwood grove

[Verse 3]
She showed me how I could love again
We wrote each other without page or pen
She gave me courage, and I gave her wings
But my voice was tied, and it would not sing

[Bridge]

[Verse 4]
I tried to speak, but I never could
Now she’s moved on to some other woods
Years from now in a far off land
I’ll only wish I had held her hand

[Chorus 1]
Her breath is warm, and her voice is fire
She sings to me, so let the flames climb higher
Her heart’s a puzzle and her love’s a trove
The girl who lives in the ashwood grove

[Chorus 2]
Her voice is fire, but her voice is gone
I cannot feel, so let the cold freeze on
Her love, I’ll find, so the world, I’ll rove
The girl who lived in the ashwood grove

Muircat image

Muircat Tucson, Arizona

Muircat is a genre-defying, ground-breaking artist whose music combines modern production philosophies with traditional storytelling and lyricism. With a voice equally suited for lullabies or Opera, Muircat brings his unique brand of poeticism and passion to bear by actively defying tropes in both Pop Music and the Celtic Folk music that inspired him via his own “Neobardic” genre. ... more
