It's been seven weary nights That my love has been gone I'm beyond tears, beyond cries Beyond weak and beyond strong Forty days he lay asleeping Fought a fight that wasn't won It's been seven weary nights That my love has been gone And I cannot find rest Thoughts torment me day and night There was no time for embracing For last words and for goodbye Did he know how much I love him? That he was my heart's delight? Thus I cannot find rest Thoughts torment me day and night I will wander to a far off place now Do not cry and do no mourn There's a new path for me that awaits now to reach a distant shore In the seventh wary night I had the strangest dream I was walking by the seaside On a ship I spotted him I knew well that I was dreaming And I saw him there so clear In the seventh wary night
I had the stranges dream We walked side by side Down the shore a little while And the answered all my qestions Some with words, some with a smile And his steps were light and graceful Not a trace of his last trial As we walked side by side Down the shore a lite while I will wander to a far off place now Do not cry and do no mourn There's a new path for me that awaits now to reach a distant shore When I saw the dream was fading In the sevent wary night I pulled him to my heart And embraced him for goodbye "Yes I know how much you loved me and you are my heart's delight" I woke up with the dawning and my tears they had dried I will wander to a far off place now Do not cry and do no mourn There's a new path for me that awaits now to reach a distant shore
