Brief History The song was originally written by me some years ago (i.e. long before there even was a TWILIGHT novel at all). The title then was "The Dreaming Dog" (instead of a wolf) but it already had this tribal touch in its music. The lyrics were almost the same as they are now, apart from a part in the middle where it turned to a anti-animal-testing message... sort of. I always wanted to re-record it because after a while, I didn't like that protest song slice any more. And actually before even knowing about TWILIGHT I had decided to replace the dog with a wolf and re-write the middle part to make it a kind of very romantic beauty-and-beast story. When I finally got drawn into the TWILIGHT universe, it was while reading the second book NEW MOON that the strong reference of "One Wolf" occured to me. I really had to change just a few words to make it fit. And since the books had put me in such a hyper-romantic mood, I felt it was now or never to record the song again.

one wolf is dreaming like only wolves dream one wolf is dreaming hunting over the land nose down low on the sand reading the tastes thirsty for the moon in the waters one wolf is dreaming as are his brothers and sisters all the pack is dreaming like one mind they would follow the trail sense the beauty from behind the veil her human sweetness, fragile and frail the one's mind is with the pack as ever but not his heart that is lost, that is captured On and on he would wonder why he can't have her this devotion will remain for ever the wind sighs her name, whispering from the trees without cease so wistful that it's hard to breathe one wolf is dreaming desireful visions one wolf is dreaming chasing the one thing that cannot be found nose down low on the ground he's reading the tastes still thirsty for the moon in the waters | ||||
