Bell In The Sea The lyrics

(Music: Marillion Lyrics: Steve Hogarth & John Helmer)



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
