lyrics

While you sleep there so softly and silent
As the mist falls with it's mission of dew
Catching your dreams like the sea catches water
I watch the moon come to watch over you

While you drift away on your journey
Far far away like a wandering cloud
Though it may seem that I watch from a distance
I'll never forget my true love my bride

Ch.
So tell me my fortune sad gypsy lady
Isn't that one of the things that you know?
Through the eye of a storm through the eye of a needle
This is what she said to me carry on

When first I beheld her beheld her beheld her
A raven haired beauty with fire in her eyes
Escaped form the shadows to stand on the gallows
Ready to flood the earth with her tears

Oh but I led her away to the desert
And tenderly fed and protected her there
Her breasts are like fawns that browse 'mongst the lillies
Oh come away my beauty my dove

Ch.

As I was wandering wandering wandering
The river that flows out of dawn to the dusk
That's travelled and wound along many a highway
That seemed as though lost but you know that will find

A home in the sea the mist and the rain
A home in the hail gathering storm
Consciousness stream of poems dreams and wonder
Sweeping across and flooding my soul

Ch.

Carry on carry on all flesh is carrion
When the eagle scythes through the air
Clutching the bones of the sad gypsy lady
Casting them all to the depths of the sea
