She rises like the dolphin, with the seawind in her eyes. The sunlight casting shadows, like a painter's paradise. Her hair fans out around her, floating like a crown. She plays on the water, lets it pull her down. Sometimes she swims in moonlight with the stars high above. The night sounds of the water speaking soft of love. Her skin turns to velvet as she feels the waters glide. She loses all her boundaries on this magic carpet ride. You see ripples on the water and watch the shadows dance. Then she's diving down and you're looking through a glass. Like a one way mirror, her reflection's far below. Where she was, she isn't now. That's all you really know. Two swimmers in the water, one of silver, one of gold. One below the surface, one reaching for a hole. One floating freely, one tryin' not to drown. A dreamer with two faces, a dolphin and a clown. If you think you'll hold her in a shallow pool, catch her in a waterfall, you're thinking like a fool. She'll strike up the horizon, like a ship out to sea. Leaving just illusions that look like memories. She wears the water like a mask, a brand new suit of gold. A player on the stage, an actress no one knows. She rolls and tumbles, falling like a clown. A swimmer in the water that flies to higher grounds ![]() |

Unfinished Life
It's an unfinished life That I find lies before me An open-ended dream And I don't want to wake I've crossed so many rivers In search of crystal fountains I've found the truest paths Always lead through mountains I've seen water on the sky And fire burning on the lake (chorus) You said to me "I cannot make you happy Like a wounded bird, You must find the strength to fly" Time can paint the treetops With colors of the rainbow But you cannot find the end No matter how you try 2. It's a journey with my soul That I am taking One that only goes From the cradle to the grave Going 'round in circles Like painted dancing horses Up and down we ride On the wooden courses And light from a lover's eyes Is all that I can save (chorus) You said to me "I cannot make you happy Like a wounded bird, You must find the strength to fly" Time can paint the treetops With colors of the rainbow But you cannot find the end No matter how you try 3. So I'll take the day and run Out across the open fields, Where the grass grows high And the shadows fall Where my eyes can see all the colors in the air So quiet that the wind Whistles in my hair And takes the rising dust And carries it away (chorus) You said to me "I cannot make you happy Like a wounded bird, You must find the strength to fly" Time can paint the treetops With colors of the rainbow But you cannot find the end No matter how you try 1981 Kate Wolf ![]() |

I Love her music, she is ...was amazing. I had the possibility of seeing her once and I missed it, then she shortly thereafter passed away. I have kicked myself for not going. I think I have everything she has done and I uploaded about 10 of her songs to my web radio station
