I was dreaming of you as the moon left the sky
And at dawns early light I did hear someone cry

He is lost to you now, taken so far away
I ran down to the shore, there I waited in vain

Be there no tears of joy, when the heart feels no pain
They will send you to sleep in the arms of the waves
And the song of the seahorse brings you home again

I sat watching the tide as it changed with the sky
And the mist rolled away leaving me far behind

And the greys swam together in the shimmering light
How I longed to go with them to be by your side

In the land of my dreams there's a light in the sky
We ran down to the meadow and there we did lie

And you touched me again like a breeze or a sigh
And if I never wake then the dream will not die

I'll be waiting for you where the sea meets the sky
And by dawns early light then the sea birds will cry

Let the tide take my love to the place where you lie
In the evening of time I will come by and by

They will send you to sleep in the arms of the waves
And the song of the seahorse brings you home again
