Marillion

Marillion are a British rock band, formed in Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire, England, in 1979. Their recorded studio output since 1982 is composed of seventeen albums generally regarded in two distinct eras, delineated by the departure of original frontman Fish in late 1988, and the subsequent arrival of replacement Steve Hogarth in early 1989. All four albums released with Fish were commercial successes, and the band released eleven Top 40 hits on the UK Singles Chart, including 1985's "Kayleigh", which reached No. 2 and became their biggest hit single. more »

I dreamed I rolled on the ocean floor
In the sunken bones of a broken ship
On the shadow line where whispers creep
To the world above from the world beneath

On waves of silver I dreamed of gold
Till I lost the peace that dreaming gives
I dreamed of the moment of my own death
That no one ever dreams and lives

I dreamed I sailed to the mirrored edge
Of that murky world for an iron bell
That dragged me down to the ocean bed 
And rang to mark where my shadow fell

On waves of silver I dreamed of gold
Till I lost the peace that dreaming gives
I dreamed of the moment of my own death 
That no one ever dreams and lives 

That no one ever dreams and lives 
That no one ever dreams and lives
I dreamed I slept on the ocean bed 
And a silent grave of silver sand 

Rolled in the sway of an iron bell 
I've heard it said when they go to sea 
On stormy nights, you can hear her moan 
She tolls for the mourning of her own death

And echoes here on the village stones
On the waves of silver I dreamed of gold
I dreamed of the moment of my own death 
That no one ever dreams and lives

That no one ever dreams and lives
That no one ever dreams and lives
