Nick Drake - Strange meeting II
Music Video
Song Lyrics
Deep down in the depths of forgotten dreams
So far away so long ago it seems
The memory comes of a distant beach
Pale sand stretching far from reach
It was then I found my princess of the sand.
As I traced the foam, peebles beneath my feet
I looked behind, I saw this one so sweet
She came to me and I saw in her eyes
The heavy toll of a thousand sighs
I called her my princess of the sand.
She stared at me and my mind was in a maze
As we moved along in a summer sea-dream haze
She moved her mouth but there came no sound
The message she brought can never be found
But I called her my princess of the sand.
One moment we walked with the night breeze in our face
Then I looked, she`d gone. of her presence there was no trace
Where she went or came from who can know
Or if she`ll ever return to help me know
Who she is, my princess of the sand.
Sometime when the summer nights come back
I`ll go back to the sea, follow that sandy track
I`ll look around, hope to find
That strange young dream, close behind
I`ll call her my princess of the sand.
