White Ship Lyrics

I was but a traveler

Floating endless through the sea

On the other side of knowledge

Through the pliancy of dreams

And voices there upon the ship

Spoke of radiant place's splendor

Beautiful shores with sands of gold

Wherein exists no torment or pain

What was I looking for?

What could I have hoped for?

On the white ship

I sailed through the night

As we traveled for the land eternal

We passed many a peaceful harbor

Where we could have found vibrant life

In a world known only in dreams

But vibrant was not eternal

So we continued upon our quest

Through misty lagoons of sparkling blue

And on through the pillars of the west

The land must be adorned by beauty unknown

Never before beheld

The land of eternal life

Which ocean secrets that had held

And as we left those shores of hope

And neared the end of the quest

The waters rose up before me

And fell there sharply beyond

The white ship and I were taken

Into man's withered and dying arms

What was I looking for?

What could I have hoped for?

The time that was mine

Was to parish with life
