“The Bow’s Turned Back,” by Heather Alexander. I wish I knew where it was sung.
Incidentally, this is a cheerful sea song. Those are rare. Treasure it.

Shattered Glass – Heather Alexander
Earth for dame, sun for sire,
Rise from candle to a fire-
With sky of blue and green of grass,
A land of dreams from shattered glass-

But please come, join, dance in the circle,

Faerie Queen – Heather Alexander
Heather Alexander’s “Fairy Queen”
I’ve never had actual confirmation that this is based on “The Devil Went Down to Georgia,” but…it seems kind of obvious. Anyway, every good supernatural ballad deserves a Celtic version and an American version.*sneaks in*
*leaves link*
*scurries out*
#:D?
:D!

The March of Cambreadth – Heather Alexander
(Am)Axes flash, (G)broadsword (Am)swing,
(Am)Shining (G)armour’s (F)piercing (Am)ring
Horses run with (G)polished (Am)shield,

Sound the horn and (G)call the cry,
(Am)How many of (G)them can (F)we make (Am)die!

Shadow Lover – Heather Alexander
A friend of mine and I were talking about our odd tastes in romance songs, and I remembered this one, which is about Death, descirbing him as if he were a gentle lover.
….Kind of sad when you read the books that give context, actually.
