I love this song, attributed all the time I note to Enya when in fact it is written and performed by Lisa Gerrard, who you will notice sings in a strange language, this is a language Lisa made up when she was a child and explains that this is how she speaks to 'god'....when I was feeling low before my op and when I didn't know what was wrong I took myself to a huge old oak tree that sits by the lake in a park close to home and leant my back against the great trunk of it and asked for strength and it gave me it's strength. That way I felt my own connection to earth, roots deep in the ground........
This song reminds me of those moments ............There is nothing so healing or comforting to me than walking in the park amongst those old trees and wild flowers that have been growing here on earth for so long...hope you enjoy the beautiful song and her amazing voice ![]()

I've been a fan of Lisa's singing for a long time, since I first heard her band Dead Can Dance in the mid-80s. I'm not so keen on this song, but the purity of her lovely voice shines through like gold.
