But I have no idea how accurate this is. I don't have this album but I have 3 others or theirs. You can listen to track samples on CD Universe and other online CD stores. One of my favourite tracks of theirs is track two on Aion, the next one after The Arrival and the Reunion, and it is called Saltarello. It is definitely a piece of old Italian dance music.

Dead Can Dance - The Arrival and the Reunion

I'd say love was a magical thing
I'd say love would keep us from pain
Had I been there, had I been there

I would promise you all of my life
But to lose you would cut like a knife
So I don't dare, no I don't dare

'Cause I've never come close in all of these years
You are the only one to stop my tears
And I'm so scared, I'm so scared

Take me back in time maybe I can forget
Turn a different corner and we never would have met
Would you care

I don't understand it, for you it's a breeze
Little by little you've brought me to my knees
Don't you care

No I've never come close in all of these years
You are the only one to stop my tears
I'm so scared of this love

And if all that there is is this fear of being used
I should go back to being lonely and confused
If I could, I would, I swear
