lyrics

There it is, her voice again
Like some sorcery
I ride upon her notes of pain
As she gently carries me
From such a melancholy shore
To sands of fantasy
And there she enchants me again
Sister of the sea

*Into my heart an air that kills
From far country blows
What are those blue remembered hills
What burning forests those?
That is the land of lost content
I see it shining plain
The happy shores where I went
And cannot come again*

As darkness sweeps across the sky
The moon calls her once more
The haunting song ends with a cry
And I am left upon her shore
Then the only sound is of the waves
Crashing, tossing me
Back to where I don’t belong
With my demons for company
