Music and lyric: Loreena McKennitt

Now that the time has come

Soon gone is the day

There upon some distant shore

You'll hear me say

Long as the day in the summer time

Deep as the wine dark sea

I'll keep your heart with mine.

Till you come to me.

There like a bird I'd fly

High through the air

Reaching for the sun's full rays

Only to find you there

And in the night when our dreams are still

Or when the wind calls free

I'll keep your heart with mine

Till you come to me

Now that the time has come

Soon gone is the day

There upon some distant shore

You'll hear me say

Long as the day in the summer time

Deep as the wine dark sea

I'll keep your heart with mine.

Till you come to me
