Annie Lennox – Into The West lyrics

Album: Bare

Lay down
your sweet and weary head
night is falling you have come to journeys end
sleep now
and dream of the ones who came before
they are calling
from across the distant shores

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
the door will turn to silver glass
a light on the water
all soles pass

hope fades
into the world of night
through shadows falling
out of memory and time
dont say
we have come now to the end
white shores are calling
you and I will meet again

and youll be hear in my arms just sleeping

chorus
