歌词

The moon she rides the tattered storm

On a ragged gypsy journey

The snow lies on the mountain

Like a cloak upon a king

My dreams go tumbling with the dust

Out across the valley

Blow above the river

Blow above the sea

And life's a sparrow lost at sea

In dark of night with far to go

Dreams are ships that sailed away

We are only cargo

Only cargo

Now the sea has always sung to me

But I have never never headed

I am born a farmer raised the same

Married to the land

But sometimes I will lie at night

While she is softly sleeping

An' far away I hear the song

The sea sings to the sand

For life's a sparrow lost at sea

In dark of night with far to go

Dreams are ships that sailed away

We are only cargo

Only cargo

Only cargo

Adam's prize was open eyes

His sentence was to see

So day by day he's worn awake

Against reality

So gypsies dream of being king

Kings of being free

A sailor longs to till the land

The farmer sets to sea

And the sea will love the land all night

Like a woman loves her lover

The wind will race along the beach

And make the sea cliffs ring

And I will start to wake and dream again

The dream I dreamed forever

The ships I'll never sail

The songs I'll never sing

Sweet life's a sparrow lost at sea

In dark of night with far to go

Dreams are ships that sailed away

The dreamer's only cargo

Only cargo

Only cargo
