Island at the Edge of the World Songtext
von Ninebarrow

I kissed my lover tenderly
It was the last time I would see
Her eyes look deeply into mine
She had been called by the divine

I′ve rowed a thousand times before
I take their spirits shore to shore
Those countless souls I cannot see
My vessel heavy with you here next to me

My sleep was suddenly cut short
My body drawn toward the port
To where a boat lay in the sand
Bound for that strange and distant land


I've rowed a thousand times before
I take their spirits shore to shore
Those countless souls I cannot see
My vessel heavy with you here next to me

When I arrive upon that tide
Those final moments with my bride
I′ll leave her on that green and pleasant ground
Where she can lay her burdens down

I've rowed a thousand times before
I take their spirits shore to shore
Those countless souls I cannot see
My vessel heavy with you here next to me

I've rowed a thousand times before
I take their spirits shore to shore
Those countless souls I cannot see
My vessel heavy with you here next to me
