Here are the lyrics someone posted over at ToRN - the only thing they're unsure of is the lyrics Dawn will fade" or "All will fade":<P>Lay down <BR>your sweet and weary head <BR>Night is falling, <BR>you have come to journey's end. <BR>Sleep now, <BR>and dream of the ones who came before. <BR>They are calling <BR>from across the distant shore. <P>Why do weep? <BR>What are these tears upon your face? <BR>Soon you will see <BR>all of your fears will pass away, <BR>safe in my arms <BR>you're only sleeping. <P>What can you see <BR>on the horizon? <BR>Why do the white gulls call? <BR>Across the sea <BR>a pale moon rises -- <BR>The ships have come to carry you home. <P>Dawn will turn <BR>to silver glass <BR>A light on the water <BR>All souls pass. <P>Hope fades <BR>into the world of night <BR>through shadows falling <BR>out of memory and time. <BR>Don't say, <BR>"We have come now to the end." <BR>White shores are calling <BR>you and I will meet again. <P>And you'll be here in my arms <BR>Just sleeping. <P>What can can you see <BR>on the horizon? <BR>Why do the white gulls call? <BR>Across the sea <BR>a pale moon rises -- <BR>The ships have come to carry you home. <P>And all will turn <BR>to silver glass <BR>A light on the water <BR>Grey ships pass <BR>Into the west.
