White Ship Lyrics - Singles - Solitude Aeturnus

I was but a traveler 

Floating endless through the sea 

On the other side of knowledge 

Through the pliancy of dreams 

And voices there upon the ship 

Spoke of radiant place's splendor 

Beautiful shores with sands of gold 

Wherein exists no torment or pain 

What was I looking for 

What could I have hoped for 

On the white ship I sailed through the night 

As we traveled for the Land Eternal 

We passed many peaceful harbor 

Where we could have found vibrant life 

In a world known only in dreams 

But vibrant was not eternal 

So we continued upon our quest 

Through misty lagoons of sparkling blue 

And on through the pillars of the West 

The land mist be adorned by beauty unknown 

Never before beheld 

The land of eternal life 

Which ocean secrets had held 

And as we left those shores of hope 

And neared the end of the quest 

The waters rose up before me 

And fell there sharply beyond 

The white ship and I were taken 

Into man's withered and dying arms 

What was I looking for 

What could I have hoped for 

The time that was mime was to parish with life
