(A Tribute To Joan Baez)

Lyrics
The girl at the club is nervous and shy
Sings her songs to the patrons sipping their tea
Love, death and beauty inspire this lady
The lady from the house in the tree
A young gypsy, daughter of the moon
She walked with the king and saves a place for you
Golden dreamers paying their dues
Blessed is the lady from the house in the tree
Catch her words on the gulf winds
As they blow through your hair
And let your greatest dreams begin
Love needs nothing returned
Sing the mothers of earth, the warriors for peace
They’re ready to fight for human rights
And they stand beside the lady from the house in the tree
They tell a story of seabirds in-flight
Still waters at night and living free
They all know her name from Thailand to Spain
I am with you sings the lady from the house in the tree
The mist rolls in from Highway One
As the tides recede and swell
And sing fare thee well
