“Where are you this moment?
only in my dreams.
You're missing, but you're always
a heartbeat from me.”

Song lyrics, Amarantine (2005)

“I'm sometimes asked what are the pluses and minuses of celebrity … and, for me, the biggest plus is being successful at something that I love to do. The minuses, unfortunately, include having to live with security and the knowledge that you may be stalked. … I do like people … I have lots of friends, but I can only be who I am.”

Women's Weekly interview (2006)

“When entering the studio, I don't know what will happen. I do a so-called trip into myself: I sit down at the piano and the melody might start to evolve from my playing or then I might start to sing it. At that stage I do not yet have clear ideas about what kind of emotions I would like to express. Until I play the completed piece to Roma and Nicky and when I observe their reactions, the music gets its meaning…”

Anna interview (2005)

“The success of Watermark surprised me. I never thought of music as something commercial; it was something very personal to me… The writing of a melody is an emotional moment; success doesn't make it easy.”

You interview (2006)

“After all the words are said,
after all the dreams we made;
every one a precious one,
every one a summer sun…”

Song lyrics, Amarantine (2005)

“How far to go
I cannot say.
How many more
Will journey this way?”

"Storms in Africa II"
Song lyrics, Watermark (1988)

“Mountains, solitude and the moon
until the journey's end?
The river holds the lost road of the sky;
the shape of eternity?”

Song lyrics, Amarantine (2005)

“I loved to talk about music to Nicky … His influence came from people like The Beatles and The Beach Boys, and he had these ideas about layering vocals, painting landscapes with music. Roma knew about Irish mythology, told stories, wrote poetry and had this special feeling for lyrics. My grounding came from the classics.”

Women's Weekly interview (2006)

“When the evening falls and the daylight is fading,
From within me calls — could it be I am sleeping?
For a moment I stray, then it holds me completely.
Close to home, I cannot say.”

"Evening Falls"
Song lyrics, Watermark (1988)

“The bright days of my youth
They were full of hope
The great journey that was before me then
Was what was destined to be, bye bye.
Now I'm sorrowful,
The day is long past.
Alas and woe, oh.”

"The Bright Days of My Youth" (original Irish Gaelic title "Na Laetha Geal M'óige")
Song lyrics, Watermark (1988)
