D

[Verse 1]
           Am7        D
Within the deep night sky
              Am7      D
The stars lie in its embrace
              Am7          D
The courtyard still in its sleep
            Am7       D
Peace comes over your face

[Verse 2]
         Am7     D
"Come to me," it sings
          Am7          D
"Hear the pulse of the land
            Am7     D
The ocean's rhythms pull
             Am7          D
To hold your heart in its hand"

[Verse 3]
Am                  D
When the wind blows strong
 C                 D
Across the cypress trees
    Am                     D
The nightbirds cease their song
           C   D
So gathers memories

[Verse 4]
               Am7        D
Last night you spoke of a dream
              Am7              D
Where forests stretched to the east
              Am7      D
And each bird sang its song
          Am7         D
A unicorn joined in a feast

[Verse 5]
    Am          D
And in a corner stood
  C           D
A pomegranate tree
     Am           D
With wild flowers there
          C         D
No mortal eye could see

[Verse 6]
               Am7       D
Yet still some mystery befalls
            Am7           D
Sure as the cock crows at morn
             Am7       D
The world in stillness keeps
              Am7         D
The secret of babes to be born

[Verse 7]
Am             D
Come to me, my love
C                     D
Hear the pulse of the land
    Am              D
The ocean's rhythms pull
             C            D
To hold your heart in its hand

[Verse 8]
           Am7       D
I heard an old voice say
          Am7          D
"Don't go far from the land
            Am7        D
The seasons have their way
          Am7      D
No mortal can understand"
