Lyrics:
Only once upon a silver moon we sailed for seven summers
Through many dreamlike islands in the dark blue sea
The Island of the Promises, the Island of the Women
The Island of the Longing, the Island of the Strong
Once upon a silver moon we sailed

We come in the wind, we leave in the wind
We come in the wind, we leave in the wind
Go tell my lady, go tell my love
We sail with the tide

We raised a sail and following the wind of seven winters
We went for the west, we went for the Land of Promise
For the Land of the Fair, the Island of the Apple Trees
The Island of the Pleasures, the laughing and the mocking
Where we left one friend behind
Then we raised one silver sail and we climbed

We come in the wind, we leave in the wind
We come in the wind, we leave in the wind
Go tell my lady, go tell my love
We sail with the tide

And found ourselves adrift under a sky of endless velvet
Blue and the stars and the stars, a million trillion galaxies
Sailing for eternity, and the stars
And endless choirs of angels fill the midnight air
With the phosphorescence of their radiant prayer
And a paradise of birds,
And the ravens in the dark, and the radiance of the moon,
Just once upon a silver moon we sailed

We come in the wind, we leave in the wind
We come in the wind, we leave in the wind
Go tell my lady, go tell my love
We sail with the tide

Only once upon a silver moon we sailed for seven seasons
Through many dreamlike islands in the dark blue sea
