I had a dream

Of a place far away.

I followed a river

Where the dead man would play.

And I'm leaving in the morning.

That lie there for me.

By the tall white mountains

Which lie by the sea. 

And you a man 
Whom as tall as the sky            verse 2 
Followed a river 
Where thousands have died. 

He was leaving in the morning.  
He was leaving in the morning. He said,    Pre-Chorus 2 
If I come home and my women has flown. 

Those big black diamonds 
That lie there for me.           Chorus 2 
By the tall white mountains 
Which lie by the sea.
