Into the West Lyrics

lay down
your sweet and weary head
night is falling
you have come your journey;s end
sleep now
and dream of ones who came before
they are calling
from across a 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 arm
you're only sleeping

Chorus:
What can you see 
on the horixon
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 shodows 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

chours

and all will turn 
to silver gall
a light on the water 
grey ships pass
into the west
