A tale is told, a dawning dream,

  now rising into windless skies,

  a gentle truth, 'neath starlight gleam,

  where hope is born and madness dies

  Ebb and flow, the tide brings in,

  a light and truth forevermore,

  all quiet lies and hidden sin,

  our hopes and dreams, here washed ashore.

  There'll be no sadness of farewell,

  no hopelessness when I embark,

  and then upon the ev'ning bell

  we'll sail together in the dark,

  I seek the truth with aged hands

  and find nothing when twilight falls,

  Upon the navy night we stand,

  within the silence, wait enthralled,

  A tale is told beneath the glow

  of those who stand upon the sea

  and dance upon the ebb and flow:

  the restless ones, forever free
