[Verse 1]
I was living by the water
Late July moon's early quarter
Summer mornings, early dawnings
Paid no heed to me, gave no warning
Of their endless ways
[Chorus 1]
Sea tide flowing in the river
Is all the music I would ever
Have a long, long day
Since I went away
By the sea curlews calling
See the summer stars falling
Fire burning in the sun
Lighting up their way
[Post-Chorus]
On the lonely sands of the western strands
It was there I made my way
[Verse 2]
On the mountain, there my song I'll sing
When thе wind plays in the raven's wing
And I saw moorland horses
Dancing ovеr the hills from the deadland marshes (Over the hills)
Down to the sea
[Chorus 2]
Voices from the empty moor
They call me past the stranger's door
Because I keep no company
I make no enemy
The tide is turning; there's no waiting
Day is long; sun is setting (Sun)
Fire shifting in the wind
These times, they have no end
[Post-Chorus]
On the lonely sands of the western strands
It was there I made my way (Sun)
