Northern Shore - The Dream Lyrics

She had a strange foreboding, she had a warning dream
"If your love goes to the ocean you'll see him ne'er again"
So she begged and then she pleaded that he'd stay upon the shore
But her pleading went unheeded, and he went to sea once more

Fal dal de lie fal de lay fal de lo
The more that you run then the faster it goes
When destiny calls you, you know that you know
That you know that you'll never escape

So she watched and sadly waited as the days crawled slowly by
And she ever grew frustrated for a sail against the sky
And she watched the clouds that gathered, and the darkness out at sea
And she prayed to the Almighty, "Won't You bring him home to me?"

Singing fal dal de lay fal de lo fal de lie
The faster you flee then the faster it flies
When destiny calls you, how ever you try
You must know that you'll never escape

When the storm blew round the headland it was strong and fierce and cold
So she went down to the harbour, a guide-light for to hold
And he found her in the morning, when his ship came safe to land
She was frozen to the quayside, with a lantern in her hand

With a fal dal de lo fal de lie fal de lay
It matters not whether you go or you stay
In the end we are dust and we'll all blow away
And you know we can never escape

It was then that he remembered the words from her strange dream
That she would not see her true love if he went again to sea
So he never was in danger, but he never sailed again
And they laid him by her gently with a bullet in his brain

Fal dal de lie fal de lay fal de lo
The more that you run then the faster it goes
When destiny calls you, you know that you know
That you know that you'll never escape

Singing fal dal de lay fal de lo fal de lie
The faster you flee then the faster it flies
When destiny calls you, how ever you try
You must know that you'll never escape

With a fal dal de lo fal de lie fal de lay
It matters not whether you go or you stay
In the end we are dust and we'll all blow away
And you know we can never escape
And you know we can never escape
Yes you know we can never escape
