Lyrics

Words and music by Fran Walsh, Howard Shore, Annie Lennox

lay down your sweet and weary head
night is falling
you have come to journey's end
sleep now
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
