Bell In The Sea The Lyrics

    (music: marillion lyrics: steve hogarth & john helmer)

    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
