He Sails Tonight
Journey Beyond Time: Ian Broudie's Nautical Dreams Unveiled
Lyrics
In between awake and sleep
In the state between being awake and asleep
He closed his eyes and took the leap
Closing his eyes and taking a leap into the unknown
The afternoons where mothers weep
Afternoons filled with mothers' sorrowful tears
For frozen lakes and fallen leaves
Mourning for frozen lakes and fallen leaves
Safe inside his tree house dreams
Feeling secure within the dreams of his tree house
Forsakes his plans
Abandoning his plans
Forgets his schemes
Forgetting his schemes
The wicked whisper from the sea
The ominous whispers emanating from the sea
This is the night you come with me
Invitation for a mysterious night journey
Time is passing by
The relentless passage of time
A ship comes in
An opportunity or change arriving
It sails tonight
The ship sets sail during the night
When all the lights parade the air
When lights illuminate the atmosphere
Like carousels at summer fairs
Similar to the festive atmosphere of summer fairs
Beware the stare of ghost house eyes
Caution against the gaze of haunted eyes
The wicked whispers in the night
Dark whispers persisting in the night
Still it's ringing in his mind
The haunting echoes remain in his thoughts
So hard to touch, so hard to find
Elusive and challenging to grasp or comprehend
In tree house dreams, he still go waits
In his dreams of the tree house, he still anticipates
And seven seas to seal his fate
The vastness of seven seas determining his destiny
Time is passing by
The continuous flow of time
A ship comes in
An opportunity or change arrives
It sails tonight
The ship sets sail on this night
Time is passing by
Time keeps progressing
A ship comes in
Another opportunity or change arrives
It sails tonight
The ship sets sail once more on this night
Yes time has passed him by
Acknowledging that time has left him behind
His ship came in
His awaited opportunity or change has arrived
It sailed last night
The ship sailed away the previous night
