Great Big Sea - Demesduit Dream lyrics

(written by Bob Hallett)

I dreamt I saw a woman standing by the strand,

Waiting for her people to come in from the land.

Waiting there for seven days, she built a fire in the sand

Waiting for her people to come in from the land.

She had the look of a refugee hiding in her eyes

And when I tried to talk to her she answered with a cry

And pointed to the water out beyond the harbour line

Where a thousand ships lay waiting, they lay waiting for my sign.

CHORUS:

I remember days of sunlight

With my father by my side

And the children, ran before usGreat Big Sea - Demesduit Dream - http://motolyrics.com/great-big-sea/demesduit-dream-lyrics.html

Like the foam upon the tide

We ran like frightened partridge, when the strangers came to talk

Bringing sickness 'round them and the thunder in their walk

We ran into the valleys and we ran into the hills

The young ran before us driven by the strangers' will

CHORUS

I'm waiting by the landwash with the giant standing near

I see them coming always, the cChildren in their fear

I'm waiting on my blanket and the giant waits with me

And I will wait here always as they fill the endless sea

CHORUS

repeat
