I wonder if you see the gift that you’ve given me
the courage to grieve
as you led me through forgotten memory

Chorus:  Guiding my hand
facing ghosts of long ago buried in this wasteland
the journey she denied . . . the tears we should’ve cried . . .
the love laid down and died . . .
withdrawn long before it was time . . . 
such a crime . . .
Now here you are giving to me all that she couldn’t be

She never said goodbye
the children didn’t ask why
but when in bed alone they’d cry
prayin’ that she wouldn’t have to die

Chorus: Guiding my hand
facing ghosts of long ago buried in this wasteland
the journey she denied . . . the tears we should’ve cried . . .
the love laid down and died . . .
withdrawn long before it was time . . . 
such a crime . . .
Now here you are giving to me all that she couldn’t be

I wonder if you see the gift that you’ve give me
the power to be free
by listenin’ to the wounded child in me
being my friend, knowing on you I can depend
the rage no more denied
suppressed feelings now brought into the light
creating a space open wide
where sleeping dreams no longer hide
thank God I’m alive . . .

I wonder if you see the gift that you’ve given me

Gentle friend, I’ll be with you til the end – and then . . .
if you get there before I do
try to remember what we’ve been through
please touch me now and then with tender loving care
for I’d miss the warmth of your body from way out there . . .

Chorus:  I know when loved ones die . . . 
no one ever leaves
but our bodies are a treasure we receive
and the language of love through your body flow
lifts me when I’m feelin’ low
your loving touch releases me to flow

You’ve seen my pain, and I’ve seen plenty of yours
we’ve shed our tears as loved ones come and go
we’ve cried and laughed and sighed
at times we wanted to die
sometimes we with eagles soared . . .
and other times wondered why we signed up for the course

Chorus: 
I know when loved ones die . . . 
no one ever leaves
but our bodies are a treasure we receive
and the language of love through your body flow
lifts me when I’m feelin’ low
your loving touch releases me to flow

Gentle friend I’ll be with you til the end – and then . . .
if you get there before I do
try to remember what we’ve been through
please touch me now and then with tender loving care
for I’d miss the warmth of your body from way out there . . .
for I’d miss the warmth of your body from way out there . . .

On this journey letting go of control
guide me, guide me so I know . . .
Passage through the darkness to be whole
illuminating hidden shadows I disown
Whimpering voices demanding to be heard
denied for so long . . . orphaned in this world
Conditioned in survival – severed from the whole
On this journey letting go of control . . .
guide me, guide me so I know . . .

Beyond the Illusion . . . beneath the surface so much more
embracing the duality . . .
surrendering to my soul . . .
guide me, guide me so I know . . .

Wendysong   Amy Hindman   July 1998

Gentle friend, I’ll be with you til the end – and then . . .

if you get there before I do

try to remember what we’ve been through

please touch me now and then with tender loving care

for I’d miss the warmth of your body from way out there . . .

Chorus:  I know when loved ones die . . . no one ever leaves

but our bodies are a treasure we receive

and the language of love through your body flow

lifts me when I’m feelin’ low

your loving touch releases me to flow

You’ve seen my pain, and I’ve seen plenty of yours

we’ve shed our tears as loved ones come and go

we’ve cried and laughed and sighed

at times we wanted to die

sometimes we with eagles soared . . .

and other times wondered why we signed up for the course

Chorus

Gentle friend I’ll be with you til the end – and then . . .

if you get there before I do

try to remember what we’ve been through

please touch me now and then with tender loving care

for I’d miss the warmth of your body from way out there . . .

for I’d miss the warmth of your body from way out there . .

And now I know it’s time to let go . . .

the dying moon mirrors the dance my body knows . . .

the shedding of the old reflects the pain within my soul

healing passage through the dark will lead me home . . .

healing passage through the dark to be reborn . . .

and the mystery cycle begins anew . . .

Chorus:  New moon . . . the light will return real soon . . .

New moon . . . sometimes inspires a tune . . .

Magic moon . . . mysterious rune . . . 

Guru moon . . . please guide me to my shadow

through the darkness where the Goddess lies in slumber deep . . .

awaken her dormant power in me . . .

Chorus

Magic moon . . . mysterious rune

magic moon . . .

First day of spring
wish I knew what I was feeling
my mind needs clearing

Chorus:  Like a closet filled with webs of darkness
ghosts fade in and out of focus
pain and fear locked somewhere in my mind
the child remembers it somehow
please trust my journey through you now
together we’ll expose the lurking shadows
and tenderly our love will light the way

Somehow I just need to sing
take the time to be listening
the wound keeps bleeding patiently
revealing unknown mystery . . .
searchin’ for the key . . . inside of me . . . .

Memories buried long ago
photographs refuse to share the story
there was no glory when you let go
left alone you took the map 
and no one else could fill the gap
and all that rage I turned it in on me
and now I just want to be free

First day of spring
wish I knew what I was feeling . . .

PRAYER FOR MY CHILD     JULY 1988    WRITTEN BY AMY HINDMAN6/14/2015

July 1988

My brave little one . . . your pain is almost done . . .
soon you will be dancing in the sun . . .
the journey you are moving through
becoming the love that was given you
letting the pain overflow . . .
discovering what you didn’t know
freeing your life from the shadow
melting into the beauty of the rainbow

Chorus:  You know that I can feel your pain
wounded child cryin’ in the rain
though I’ve been gone for all these years
I have always dried your tears
for I am always near – feeling all your fear
just call on me, my little one . . . I am here

My youngest little prize, “bonus baby” of five
you’ve walked through the storm with your head up high
remembering the words to our lullaby
so go ahead and let yourself cry
I’m so sorry I never said goodbye
leaving my Amy, my little child -
wondering why?


Chorus: You know that I can feel your pain
wounded child cryin’ in the rain
though I’ve been gone for all these years
I have always dried your tears
for I am always near – feeling all your fear
just call on me, my little one . . . I am here

My sweet child, I can still feel you smile
your serenade of love still touches me
soothing like a rhapsody
listen carefully for my reply
I come to you through dream and lullaby

“When at night I go to sleep – fourteen angels watch do keep” *

My brave little one, your pain is almost done
soon you will be shining like the sun
living in the light we are one

* from Humperdinck’s “Prayer from Hansel and Gretel”

I remember when you told me “Don’t name your kids after me”
but that would leave a great big hole in the family tree
it’s really not such an atrocious name . . .
when I remember your soft gentle face
My mother is who you are . . . 
and “Bertha Wilhelmina” is pearls covered with lace

Chorus: And you’re still so much a part of me
it’s from you I got my identity
though you weren’t there to show me how to be
I can feel your spirit move – movin’ through me

Don’t ya wish somehow
we could’ve altered that untimely fate
seems amazin’ that my heart didn’t just fill up with hate
losin’ you so long ago – it still wounds me so . . .
now I’m just lettin’ it bleed . . .
healin’ with the help of your love the wounded child in me 

Chorus: 
And you’re still so much a part of me
it’s from you I got my identity
though you weren’t there to show me how to be
I can feel your spirit move – movin’ through me

I never knew I looked so like you
you left me as a little girl
became a woman I wish you knew
photographs of you yesterday – I resemble today
the essence of your beauty will sparkle within me always    

Chorus: 
And you’re still so much a part of me
it’s from you I got my identity
though you weren’t there to show me how to be
I can feel your spirit move – movin’ through me

I can feel your spirit move – movin’ through me

 Summer 1980

Restless times for love & wishin’ I could sleep beside a man  that’s not like all the others
not just casual intimacy

Chorus: Strangers in a strange land indeed
who are you who is me
and why can’t we come together
we’re fillin’ a void that only gets wider
acting as if we both really care
yet still I’m sittin’ here today
watchin’ the sun play on the bay

Alone at home just a pen and my thoughts
high tide singin’ strong
fire’s cracklin’, lanterns low – wish I had a beau
just someone to share with – just to be there with
to hold me when I’m low

 Summer 1980

Moonset Skagit Bay
sparklin’ golden to the Milky Way
think I’m gonna delay my stay
til the clouds disappear it away

Red houseboat circles around
rockin’ to the beat of the sound
Whidbey lights come a flickerin’ through
its windows like a haunting guru

Chorus: 


Soothing Puget Symphony
gently rockin’ me away to the sea
moonset sinkin’ through a clouded veil
intoxicating moonlight ale

Pairs of lovers greetin’ the sea
sharin’ in its mystery
rowboat dancin’ by the red houseboat
lovers makin’ moon a la float                Chorus

Mornin’ comes rollin’ around
Rowboat lies still on the ground
Tide wanes out, ocean lullaby nil
but rockin’ with a harmony still              Chorus

Moonset Skagit Bay
Moonset Skagit Bay . . . moonset, moonset Skagit Bay
Moonset Skagit Bay

Healing waters . . . healing waters of the earth

Cleansing waters . . . cleansing waters of the earth

Stones of mystery here long ago before me . . .

earth history . . . speaks to me . . .

Sacred pool envelop me . . . womb of the earth replenishing 

let it be . . .

Welcome the mystery . . .

wisdom of the Mother Earth guiding me . . .

gathering strength . . . emerging free . . .

Sing of earth’s melody      joining in life’s harmony

Breitenbush River symphony . . . 

healing me . . .

healing me . . .

  December 1991
  
  On this journey letting go of control
  
  guide me, guide me so I know . . .
  
  Passage through the darkness to be whole
  
  illuminating hidden shadows I disown
  
  Whimpering voices demanding to be heard
  
  denied for so long . . . orphaned in this world
  
  Conditioned in survival – severed from the whole
  
  On this journey letting go of control . . .
  
  guide me, guide me so I know . . .
  
  Beyond the Illusion . . . beneath the surface so much more
  
  embracing the duality . . .
  
  surrendering to my soul . . .
  
  guide me, guide me so I know . . .

  Gentle friend, I’ll be with you til the end – and then . . .
  
  if you get there before I do
  
  try to remember what we’ve been through
  
  please touch me now and then with tender loving care
  
  for I’d miss the warmth of your body from way out there . . .
  
  Chorus:  I know when loved ones die . . . no one ever leaves
  
  but our bodies are a treasure we receive
  
  and the language of love through your body flow
  
  lifts me when I’m feelin’ low
  
  your loving touch releases me to flow
  
  You’ve seen my pain, and I’ve seen plenty of yours
  
  we’ve shed our tears as loved ones come and go
  
  we’ve cried and laughed and sighed
  
  at times we wanted to die
  
  sometimes we with eagles soared . . .
  
  and other times wondered why we signed up for the course
  
  Chorus
  
  Gentle friend I’ll be with you til the end – and then . . .
  
  if you get there before I do
  
  try to remember what we’ve been through
  
  please touch me now and then with tender loving care
  
  for I’d miss the warmth of your body from way out there . . .
  
  for I’d miss the warmth of your body from way out there . .

  THE GIFT~FOR KARLEEN  MARCH 1990  WRITTEN BY AMY HINDMAN6/14/2015

  I wonder if you see the gift that you’ve given me
  the courage to grieve
  as you led me through forgotten memory
  
  Chorus:  Guiding my hand
  facing ghosts of long ago buried in this wasteland
  the journey she denied . . . the tears we should’ve cried . . .
  the love laid down and died . . .
  withdrawn long before it was time . . . 
  such a crime . . .
  Now here you are giving to me all that she couldn’t be
  
  She never said goodbye
  the children didn’t ask why
  but when in bed alone they’d cry
  prayin’ that she wouldn’t have to die
  
  Chorus: Guiding my hand
  facing ghosts of long ago buried in this wasteland
  the journey she denied . . . the tears we should’ve cried . . .
  the love laid down and died . . .
  withdrawn long before it was time . . . 
  such a crime . . .
  Now here you are giving to me all that she couldn’t be
  
  I wonder if you see the gift that you’ve give me
  the power to be free
  by listenin’ to the wounded child in me
  being my friend, knowing on you I can depend
  the rage no more denied
  suppressed feelings now brought into the light
  creating a space open wide
  where sleeping dreams no longer hide
  thank God I’m alive . . .
  
  I wonder if you see the gift that you’ve given me

  And now I know it’s time to let go . . .
  
  the dying moon mirrors the dance my body knows . . .
  
  the shedding of the old reflects the pain within my soul
  
  healing passage through the dark will lead me home . . .
  
  healing passage through the dark to be reborn . . .
  
  and the mystery cycle begins anew . . .
  
  Chorus:  New moon . . . the light will return real soon . . .
  
  New moon . . . sometimes inspires a tune . . .
  
  Magic moon . . . mysterious rune . . . 
  
  Guru moon . . . please guide me to my shadow
  
  through the darkness where the Goddess lies in slumber deep . . .
  
  awaken her dormant power in me . . .
  
  Chorus
  
  Magic moon . . . mysterious rune
  
  magic moon . . .
  
  magic moon . . .

  DEEP THERAPY          MARCH 1989        WRITTEN BY AMY HINDMAN6/14/2015

  First day of spring
  wish I knew what I was feeling
  my mind needs clearing
  
  Chorus:  Like a closet filled with webs of darkness
  ghosts fade in and out of focus
  pain and fear locked somewhere in my mind
  the child remembers it somehow
  please trust my journey through you now
  together we’ll expose the lurking shadows
  and tenderly our love will light the way
  
  Somehow I just need to sing
  take the time to be listening
  the wound keeps bleeding patiently
  revealing unknown mystery . . .
  searchin’ for the key . . . inside of me . . . .
  
  Memories buried long ago
  photographs refuse to share the story
  there was no glory when you let go
  left alone you took the map 
  and no one else could fill the gap
  and all that rage I turned it in on me
  and now I just want to be free
  
  First day of spring
  wish I knew what I was feeling . . .

  PRAYER FOR MY CHILD     JULY 1988    WRITTEN BY AMY HINDMAN6/14/2015

  July 1988
  
  My brave little one . . . your pain is almost done . . .
  soon you will be dancing in the sun . . .
  the journey you are moving through
  becoming the love that was given you
  letting the pain overflow . . .
  discovering what you didn’t know
  freeing your life from the shadow
  melting into the beauty of the rainbow
  
  Chorus:  You know that I can feel your pain
  wounded child cryin’ in the rain
  though I’ve been gone for all these years
  I have always dried your tears
  for I am always near – feeling all your fear
  just call on me, my little one . . . I am here
  
  My youngest little prize, “bonus baby” of five
  you’ve walked through the storm with your head up high
  remembering the words to our lullaby
  so go ahead and let yourself cry
  I’m so sorry I never said goodbye
  leaving my Amy, my little child -
  wondering why?
  
  
  Chorus: You know that I can feel your pain
  wounded child cryin’ in the rain
  though I’ve been gone for all these years
  I have always dried your tears
  for I am always near – feeling all your fear
  just call on me, my little one . . . I am here
  
  My sweet child, I can still feel you smile
  your serenade of love still touches me
  soothing like a rhapsody
  listen carefully for my reply
  I come to you through dream and lullaby
  
  “When at night I go to sleep – fourteen angels watch do keep” *
  
  My brave little one, your pain is almost done
  soon you will be shining like the sun
  living in the light we are one
  
  * from Humperdinck’s “Prayer from Hansel and Gretel”

  I remember when you told me “Don’t name your kids after me”
  but that would leave a great big hole in the family tree
  it’s really not such an atrocious name . . .
  when I remember your soft gentle face
  My mother is who you are . . . 
  and “Bertha Wilhelmina” is pearls covered with lace
  
  Chorus: And you’re still so much a part of me
  it’s from you I got my identity
  though you weren’t there to show me how to be
  I can feel your spirit move – movin’ through me
  
  Don’t ya wish somehow
  we could’ve altered that untimely fate
  seems amazin’ that my heart didn’t just fill up with hate
  losin’ you so long ago – it still wounds me so . . .
  now I’m just lettin’ it bleed . . .
  healin’ with the help of your love the wounded child in me 
  
  Chorus: 
  And you’re still so much a part of me
  it’s from you I got my identity
  though you weren’t there to show me how to be
  I can feel your spirit move – movin’ through me
  
  I never knew I looked so like you
  you left me as a little girl
  became a woman I wish you knew
  photographs of you yesterday – I resemble today
  the essence of your beauty will sparkle within me always    
  
  Chorus: 
  And you’re still so much a part of me
  it’s from you I got my identity
  though you weren’t there to show me how to be
  I can feel your spirit move – movin’ through me
  
  I can feel your spirit move – movin’ through me

   Summer 1980
  
  Restless times for love & wishin’ I could sleep beside a man  that’s not like all the others
  not just casual intimacy
  
  Chorus: Strangers in a strange land indeed
  who are you who is me
  and why can’t we come together
  we’re fillin’ a void that only gets wider
  acting as if we both really care
  yet still I’m sittin’ here today
  watchin’ the sun play on the bay
  
  Alone at home just a pen and my thoughts
  high tide singin’ strong
  fire’s cracklin’, lanterns low – wish I had a beau
  just someone to share with – just to be there with
  to hold me when I’m low

  Moonset Skagit Bay
  sparklin’ golden to the Milky Way
  think I’m gonna delay my stay
  til the clouds disappear it away
  
  Red houseboat circles around
  rockin’ to the beat of the sound
  Whidbey lights come a flickerin’ through
  its windows like a haunting guru
  
  Chorus: 
  
  
  Soothing Puget Symphony
  gently rockin’ me away to the sea
  moonset sinkin’ through a clouded veil
  intoxicating moonlight ale
  
  Pairs of lovers greetin’ the sea
  sharin’ in its mystery
  rowboat dancin’ by the red houseboat
  lovers makin’ moon a la float                Chorus
  
  Mornin’ comes rollin’ around
  Rowboat lies still on the ground
  Tide wanes out, ocean lullaby nil
  but rockin’ with a harmony still              Chorus
  
  Moonset Skagit Bay
  Moonset Skagit Bay . . . moonset, moonset Skagit Bay
