Dar Williams Picture
American singer-songwriterDar Williams lives at the intersection of popand folk. She fuses many genres (blues, rock, jazz), resulting in a rather organic sound. She has been making music for over a decade. Her most recent studio album, "My Better Self," finds Dar at an unequivocally brazen crossroads. Reflecting on American politics, the disillusionment and apathy of youth, and the female experience, Dar makes no apology for her outspoken beliefs.

I Love, I Love (Traveling II) Lyrics

Dar Williams

I heard love can fall so hard, it can bury a kingdom
I heard it makes the spring appear out of season
Its a storm in a shadowbox, a force to be reckoned with,
When it finds you and find you, it will.

And Id not believed it til I loved, I love
The rivers sing and stars awaken above me
And the wind and the moon in fits of restless conspiring
Turn night to heaven for you.

But I am going to a far, far land
I know it sure as Ive a past and a future
With my maps on the table, you see, I have lost many things
So many I wont turn back.

And were I a deadwood ship, my heart a compass
I would leave with inanimate grace, no love could touch me
But I live and I know that Ill burn as I grow
Though it might break my heart to walk away and so

As a moon may adore you and remain, high moon
The wind may crown your head with leaves, and keep blowing
So Ill stop and Ill watch you, for I love, I love
And then be on my way. and then be on my way.
