I dreamed I saw a sailing ship
Came floating on the dawn
Her flags were high, her sails were set
But all her crew had gone
Oh -can you tell me what it means
Is it really what it seems
Is it only just a dream?

She seemed to come so close that I
Could almost touch her side
But then she drifted through the mist
And vanished with the tide
Oh - can you tell me what it means
Is it really what it seemsIs it only just a dream?
