Village on the Sand Songtext

von Blackmore's Night

I saw three ships a-sailing in From across the sea Strangers were welcome but for curiosity But come they did And when they did Ready they did stand And things would never be the same In our village on the sand
When the ships pulled in to dock the villagers did hide When trouble came it usually was brought upon the tide When the pirates disembarked they were making plans And from then on things were not the same In our village on the sand
The smugglers came into our town And many sought to run I stood my ground bravely and came face to face with one Time and travel on the seas weathered face and hand He was different than others in My village on the sand
He told me of the years he'd spent on the stormy seas Then he spoke a poet's words of philosophy And when he had to leave again he asked me for my hand And I knew I'd never see again My village on the sand
AGAIN SOMEDAY Now you're gone We're left to carry on Though the night seems twice as long And here within my heart I don't feel very strong But we will meet again
Now you're gone We're left to carry on In the wind I hear your song With every passing hour I'm feeling more alone But we will meet again Someday?
