it was on joni's 'ladies of the canyon' album...

it's a beautiful song. lisa sang it acapella at the troubador gig december of last year, and i think angela (?) said they performed it elsewhere on the 2004 tour as well. my recording is pretty good christian, but it's in flac format. i love the lyrics. here they are for those interested:

Willy is my child, he is my father
I would be his lady all my life
He says he'd love to live with me
But for an ancient injury
That has not healed
He said I feel once again
Like I gave my heart too soon
He stood looking thru the lace
At the face on the conquered moon
And counting all the cars up the hill
And the stars on my window sill
There are still more reasons why I love him

Willy is my joy, he is my sorrow
Now he wants to run away and hide
He says our love cannot be real
He cannot hear the chapel's pealing silver bells
But you know it's hard to tell
When you're in the spell if it's wrong or if it's real
But you're bound to lose
If you let the blues get you scared to feel
And I feel like I'm just being born
Like a shiny light breaking in a storm
There are so many reasons why I love him


lisa sang it beautifully
