From the debut album 'Barefoot Electric', due September 2014.

lyrics

I am a soldier of the sun,
Searching for light when the evening comes,
Where the golden apples and the flowers bloom,
Dappled rays of afternoons.

I am a minstrel of the moon,
Hoping that the day won't come too soon,
Making music with the tides,
Underneath the heavenly skies.

I am a soldier of the sun,
Searching for light when the evening comes,
And I will dance beneath the rain,
Neither a heathen nor a saint.
