current track --> Before I Die

This is a new heavenly voices (a genre of music) CD I picked up while in Germany this year (yes, the band is French, and they are AMAZING live).

The English lyrics are also really quite interesting.

The trees I leave before I die
watch over silent meadows, waiting for the rain
a rain of leaves and sorrow veiling all the sky
until the breeze of daylight liberates my name.
Forgotten voices whipser: "heaven's not a lie"
wandering shadows lead me to the land of pain
a land where hope and roses keep on passing by ...
The way I try to resist seems a fight so vain

Because my life is buring into my heart, into my soul
Into my mind, into my heart, into my all
Into my heart, into my soul, into my ...

The voice I miss before I die
finally lulls my fear to sleep again, again
My final breathing blows off, under Autumn's eye
now I know dawn forever, will never be the same

The trees I leave before I die
watch over silent meadows, waiting for the rain

[Now imagine this being sung by two women and one man!]
