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 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.

Sail for miles, 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.

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.
