Nick Drake "Strange Meeting II" lyrics

Strange Meeting II

Deep down in the depths of forgotten dreamsSo far away, so long ago it seemsThe memory comes of a distant beachPale sand stretching far from reachIt was then I found my princess of the sand

As I traced the foam, pebbles beneath my feetI looked behind, I saw this one so sweetShe came to me and I saw in her eyesThe heavy toll of a thousand eyesI called her my princess of the sand

She stared at me and my mind was in a mazeAs we moved along in a summer sea-dream hazeShe moved her mouth but there came no soundThe message she brought can never be foundBut I called her my princess of the sand

One moment we walked with the night breeze in our faceThen I looked, she'd gone of her presence, there was no traceWhere she went or came from who can knowOr if she'll ever return to help me knowWho she is, my princess of the sand

Sometime when the summer nights come backI'll go back to the sea, follow that sandy trackI'll look around, hope to findThat strange young dream, close behindI'll call her my princess of the sand
