The moon she rides the tattered storm On a ragged gypsy journey The snow lies on the mountain Like a cloak upon a king My dreams go tumbling with the dust Out across the valley Blow above the river Blow above the sea And life's a sparrow lost at sea In dark of night with far to go Dreams are ships that sailed away We are only cargo Only cargo Now the sea has always sung to me But I have never never headed I am born a farmer raised the same Married to the land But sometimes I will lie at night While she is softly sleeping An' far away I hear the song The sea sings to the sand For life's a sparrow lost at sea In dark of night with far to go Dreams are ships that sailed away We are only cargo Only cargo Only cargo Adam's prize was open eyes His sentence was to see So day by day he's worn awake Against reality So gypsies dream of being king Kings of being free A sailor longs to till the land The farmer sets to sea And the sea will love the land all night Like a woman loves her lover The wind will race along the beach And make the sea cliffs ring And I will start to wake and dream again The dream I dreamed forever The ships I'll never sail The songs I'll never sing Sweet life's a sparrow lost at sea In dark of night with far to go Dreams are ships that sailed away The dreamer's only cargo Only cargo Only cargo
