Chris de Burgh "Discovery" lyrics

Discovery

Lady love, go back to sleepDry the tears from your eyesBut I cannot stay with theeUntil the morning

For the dawn is breakingAnd my ship is waiting for me, and I must goBut I'll be back, yesBefore this year is over

And we sailed across the seaTill we found America'Round the Cape of StormsWe set our sails for home

And when the sea was roaringAnd the Lord I called to help my drowning menI saw the light, yesThe candle in your window

And I have brought you silverAnd I have brought you goldAnd spices from the IndiesIn the hold

And I've seen ships on the horizonThat I'd swear were going downAnd now I know for certainThe world is roundI have seen, my eyes have seen

Oh, one day, says GalileoA man will reach the skyAnd see the world completelyFrom outside

And gazing down from yonderOn a world of blue and greenHe'll say with eyes of wonder"I have seen, I have seenMy eyes have seen"
