Hello, friends, enemies, and the rich tapestry in between!

I've written 20 of the 21 songs to be on my third album, but I've only recorded a handful so far. I'm expecting to release "Stardust" in the summer of 2025. That's a little while off, so I thought I'd give you a taste of what's to come. This particular song will appear on the second side of the album:

Side One

1. Overture
2. The Sting
3. Lovelight
4. Supersonic Androgynous Sex Machine
5. The Forest Children Speak…
6. Prophet
7. Looking for the Beast

Side Two

8. Rot
9. Spaceman
10. Star
11. Kill the Vamp!
12. The Royal Frog Wedding/The Royal Frog Wedding Dance
13. By the Wayside
14. Fairy Mind

Side Three

15. Sonnerus (Let the Rain)
16. There Is No Time
17. The Wizard of the Forest
18. Hey, Dude
19. Ode to a Legendary Sword
20. Planet of Life
21. Postlude

Thanks for listening, beautiful people!

Love,
Eowyn

lyrics

Honey, I saw a spaceman today
(Wonderful, glimmering, wonderful)
To think it started like any old day
And he smiled and floated down to say:
(Wonderful, shimmering, wonderful)
"Oh! Sister, won't you hold me and pray?

All the gods and spirits above
(Wonderful, glittering, wonderful)
Never gave me no one to love
And I've just been alone in this place"
(Wonderful, glistening, wonderful)
And then he wrapped his arm around my waist

You'll laugh, but it was my happiest day
(Ever since we went to the waterfalls)
And we wandered through the crystal maze
You know that I love you—always have and always will
(But I've gotta tell you, it was incredible)
He took me through the skies beyond the hills

Where he finally set me down
(I know it sounds inconceivable)
It was a haven of amazing lights and sounds
You and I have our family of three
(But my love, would you forgive me for wondering)
If there isn't room for one more version of me?

I thought I'd never find
Never find the one
You appeared before me,
Shining like the sun

I thought I'd had it all
I hadn't even begun
What is this that grows inside me,
A demon or a son?

Honey, I saw a spaceman today
(Wonderful, glimmering, wonderful)
Started like any old day

And he smiled and floated down to say:
(Wonderful, shimmering, wonderful)
"Won't you hold me and pray?"
