Into The West

Lyricist：Annie Lennox, Howard Shore, Frances Rosemary Walsh

Lay down, your sweet and weary head
Night's falling, you've come to journeys 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
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

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

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, gray ships pass into the west
