god knows how I adore life
when the wind turns on the shore
lies another day--
I can not ask for more.
When the time bell
blows my heart
and I have scored a better day
for nobody made this war of mine,
and the moments that i enjoy--
a place of love and mystery--
I'll be there anytime.
Mysteries of love where war is no more
I'll be there anytime.
This is from a song by Beth Gibbons, who was the singer for Portishead. Maybe the greatest singer I have heard in a long time. Her voice is like something from beyond our world; power and delicacy and beauty and anger and scars.
