Lay Down
Your sweet and weary head
Nighti s falling
You have come to journey's end
Sleep now
Dream of the ones who came before
They are calling
From across a distant shore
Why do you weep?
What these tears upon your face?
Soon you will see
All of your fears will pa** 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 gla**
A light on the water
All souls pa**
Hope fades
Into the world of night
Through shadows falling
Out of memory and time
Don't say
We have come to journey's 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 gla**
A light on the water
Grey ships pa**
Into the West....
