| Lay
down your sweet
and weary head Night
is falling, you have come to journey's end Sleep
now and dream of the
ones who came before They
are calling from across the distant shore Why
do you weep...? What are these tears upon your face? Soon
you will see all of your fears will pass
away Safe
in my arms, you're only sleeping What
can you see on the horizon? Why
do the white gulls call? Across
the sea, a
pale moon rises The
ships have come to carry you home... All
will turn to silver
glass The
light on the water...all souls pass Hope
fades into the world of night Through
shadows falling out of memory and time Don't
say
we have come now to the end White
shores are calling, you and I will meet
again And
you'll be here in my
arms, just sleeping What
can you see on the horizon? Why
do the white gulls call? Across
the sea, a pale moon rises The
ships have come to carry
you home And all will turn to silver glass The
light on the water... Grey
ships pass into the west... |
