Gregorian - Into the West lyrics
[Gregorian - Into the West lyrics]
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
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
