I love this song, it's from the album Treasures Left Behind: Remembering Kate Wolf from Red House Records, here's a link: http://www.katewolf.com/albums/trea.htm.

 

I had never listened to Kate Wolf before hearing this song, but after being moved by John's version of Sweet Love, I went out and got WEAVER OF VISIONS-The Kate Wolf Anthology.  Highly recommended.  I always judge music by how it can move me, and her bittersweet voice can move me.

 

Listen to Sweet Love

 

 

SWEET LOVE

 

Sweet love, don't deny me just a hand to hold,

I may not always be the one who sees.

I find myself blinded from time to time,

reaching out for someone who can take the lead.

And in my weariness I've tried to cry

although my eyes are dry, I've cried inside.

 

Sweet love, let me lay myself beside you

and listen to your breathing 'til it slows.

Long enough to dream a vision of my life

wrapped up in the gentle wind that blows.

A vision of a life lived long ago.

I see it, though the lights are low.

 

Sweet love, like the leaves that fall

the scenes go drifting by my eyes.

And I remember holding you

telling you that it would be alright.

 

You know the road looked straight ahead from far away

but it turned into a blind curve and I've lost my way today.
