I dreamt I saw a woman standing by the strand
Waiting for her people to come in from the land
Waiting there for seven days she built her fire in the sand
Waiting for her people to come in from the land

She had the look of a refugee hiding in her eyes
And when I tried to talk to her she answered with a cry
And pointed to the water out beyond the harbour line
Where a thousand ships lay waiting they lay waiting for my sign

But I remember days of sunlight
With my father by my side
And the children ran before us
Like the foam upon the tide

We ran like frightened partridge when the strangers came to talk
Bringing sickness round them and a thunder in their walk
We ran into the valleys and we ran into the hills
The young they ran before us driven by a stranger's will

But I remember days of sunlight
With my father by my side
And the children ran before us
Like the foam upon the tide

I'm waiting by the landwash with the giant standing near
I see them coming always, the children in their fear
I'm waiting on my blanket and the giant waits with me
And I will wait here always as they fill the endless sea

But I remember days of sunlight
With my father by my side
And the children ran before us
Like the foam upon the tide

But I remember days of sunlight
With my father by my side
And the children ran before us
Like the foam upon the tide

And I remember days of sunlight
And I remember children
And I remember days of sunlight
And I remember
I remember
I remember
