Sung in the voice of the Goddess Demeter, the song tells of her long search for her missing daughter Persephone, and her determination to not lose hope. Featuring Rachel Samuel on cello, the footage was primarily filmed at an ancient temple on the Greek island of Corfu, though the opening sequence sees Wendy as Demeter walking through the actual location of the ancient temple at Eleusis - modern day Elefsina (Ελευσίνα), about 20kms NW of Athens.

The film clip was shot and edited by Timothy Van Diest

LYRICS

I will not cease to hope, I am her mother
And she is my light
I'll leave no path untrod, no stone uncovered
'Til I find my flower bright

I try to seek the truth, to find an answer
Maybe I held on far too tight
Maybe she slipped away and chose a lover
As other girls to every night

I will not pass a door that I can open
No fence too high, no service to lowly
I wander many days and many nights
Hide my face behind my eyes

I have found tenderness, I have find kindness
Even so, it's still the same
The women gather round to soothe my sorrow
Try to make me smile
Remind me that life is more than pain

I hold a seed of hope that I will find her
Once again, my special maid
And she will gather flowers and dance the meadow
As always was, and always will be
Once again
