Lay down
Your sweet and weary head
The night is fallin'
You have come to jouney's end
Sleep now and dream of the ones
Who came before
They are callin'
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 sleepin'
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
Dawn will turn
To silver glass
A light on the water
All souls pass
Hope fades
Into the world of night
Through shadows fallin'
Out of memory and time
Don't say
We have come now to the end
White shores are callin'
You and I will meet again
And you'll be here
In my arms
Just sleepin'
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
