Lay down/ your sweet and weary head
Night is falling/ youÂ’ve 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
