Bell in the Sea Lyrics

I dreamed I rolled on the ocean floor
In the sunken bones of a broken ship
On the shadow line where whispers 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 it said when they go to sea
On stormy nights, you can hear her moan
She tolls for the mourning of her 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
