Lyrics

I dreamed I rolled on the ocean floor In the sunken bones of a broken ship On the shadow line where spirits creep To the world above from the world beneath On waves of silver I dreamed of gold 'till I lost the peace that dreaming gives I dreamed of the moment of my own death That no one ever dreams and lives I dreamed I sailed to the mirrored edge Of that murky world for an iron bell That dragged me down to the ocean bed And rang to mark where my shadow fell On waves of silver I dreamed of gold 'till I lost the peace that dreaming gives I dreamed of the moment of my own death That no one ever dreams and lives That no one ever dreams and lives That no one ever dreams and lives I dreamed I slept on the ocean bed And a silent grave of silver sand Rolled in the sway of an iron bell I've heard them say when they go to sea On stormy nights you can hear her moan She tolls for the mourning of my own death And echoes here on the village stones On the waves of silver I dreamed of gold I dreamed of the moment of my own death That no one ever dreams and lives That no one ever dreams and lives That no one ever dreams and lives
