Lyrics
0:11Lay down
0:17Your sweet and weary head
0:23Night is falling
0:27You have come to journey's end
0:32Sleep now
0:36And dream of the ones who came before
0:43They are calling
0:48From across the distant shore
0:53Why do you weep
0:59What are these tears upon your face
1:04Soon you will see
1:08All of your fears will pass away
1:14Safe in my arms
1:19You're only sleeping
1:24What can you see
1:29On the horizon
1:35Why do the white gulls call
1:45Across the sea
1:50A pale moon rises
1:53The ships have come to carry you home
2:07And all will turn
2:10To silver glass
2:16A light on the water
2:21All souls pass
2:27Hope fades
2:32Into the world of night
2:36Through shadows falling
2:43Out of memory and time
2:48Don't say:
2:52"We have come now to the end"
2:57White shores are calling
3:03You and I will meet again
3:07And you'll be here in my arms
3:12Just sleeping
3:19What can you see
3:24On the horizon
3:29Why do the white gulls call
3:40Across the sea
3:45A pale moon rises
3:48The ships have come to carry you home
4:01And all will turn
4:06To silver glass
4:10A light on the water
4:15Grey ships pass
4:20Into the West
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 And all will turn To silver glass A 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 A light on the water Grey ships pass Into the West
