Her Vast Dominion (2007).

Behind the dim green ocean
Fluttering, waving, mark her reign
Behind the hours of the morning
Walk her around in heavy rain
The curse, the cure, and all you can perceive
Hers, his, the kingdom is ours to share

And I’ll always run
Through her vast dominion
And I’ll always run
Through her vast dominion
Shine

A love that opens the spaces
Where pale horses run
Through fields, flat and endless
Through the forests, the mountains and the stars
The heights, to scale, the depths, to measure
What for? - Only the kingdom counts

And I’ll always run
Through her vast dominion
And I’ll always run
Through her vast dominion

The fortress in the ancient park
A scarce existence of matter
A structure of olden stones
Protecting the entrance to nowhere
The land, is hers, horizons, not there
Despair; in time it turned to bliss, too great
Eternal, endless, unspeakable, dim
And pure
