Verse 1
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
Chorus
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
Verse 2
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
Chorus
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
