GYPSY'S FIRE
Music & Lyrics: Heather Alexander
Additional Lyrics: Philip Obermarck

Bite of spring, little kiss of rain,
Nature sings with Her wild refrain-
Heed the call of the old town cryer,
"I've just seen the first gypsy fire!"

ROUND AND ROUND!
HIGHER AND HIGHER!
SPIRITS BOUND BY A WILD DESIRE!
LET IT RAZE THE VERY TOWN ENTIRE!
ALL ABLAZE WITH A GYPSY'S FIRE!

Sweating heat in the summer steam,
Makes a body glisten and gleam-
Sun-burnt arms in the evening warm and tight,
Slip and slide on a gypsy night!

Muscles stretch in the autumn breeze,
Ripened vines help to tangle and tease-
Harvest comes in the midst of flower and thorn,
Bonfires burn 'til the night is worn!

Winter snow cannot still the heat,
That commands gypsy hearts to beat-
Tumbling deep down beneath the furs can bring,
Bright budding gypsies in the spring!

Round and round Nature's wheel will turn,
In that pattern every heart can burn-
Every season as the sun retires,
Watch you sharp for those gypsy fires!

Balance of Nature
by Alexander James Adams

supported by 23 fans who also own “A Gypsy's Home”

Alexander James Adams's Balance of Nature is a wonderful album. The songs are wonderful, musically and lyrically, and He of the Sidhe is an incredible example of it. Nearly all the songs are about transitions of some sort, or about moving forward, and they are all worth listening to. Thanks for putting out such a wonderful album. Kamani

Alexander James Adams is one of my all time favorite musicians; his music has seen me through both dark times and fair. His musicianship is excellent, a master Bard, songwriter, and fiddler. Cannot recommend his work enough; his music is exceptional! gaycelt

Fav tracks, more like. Storyteller and Close Your Eyes. When things are darkest, I think of these songs, the tiny spark to keep things lit. I know that sounds campy, but it's true. Heather's and now Alex's music help with my clinical anxiety and depression, and I need all I can get. Lia Graf
