Coming In To Harbour

Well I dreamed I saw you sailing in upon a sleek white schooner

You were slipping over shallow water

You were coming into harbour, you were coming into harbour

With the wind in all your sails

You were carrying a cargo that was richer than riches

More gold than gold and much more real than real

New born babe in your arms and his cool blue eyes gazed up

Yes his cool eyes gazed upon a fresh world, one yet to be made

I was standing on the shoreline looking out over the sea

And I saw your white sail appearing on the horizon

I was standing on the shoreline just looking out over the sea

And I saw your white sail appearing on the horizon

You were coming into harbour, you were coming into harbour

In the bright light, the bright light, longer than the 20th century

·Crown

I've had money, and I've lost it

Seen an ocean, nearly crossed it

I have been to another world and I have returned

And for every high joy a hard lesson learnt

But when love comes tumbling down

I will wear a crown

I've had power, I've used and abused it

Tasted glory, I have wooed and refused it

Tried to live in a sacred way, I did and I did not

And for everything I've lost, there's been something else I've got

But when love comes tumbling down

I will wear a crown

I've been up and I've been down

Sometimes almost level with the ground

Once in every hundred years I can

Still remember who I am

Been in danger, I tried to face it

I saw a mirage, and for seven years I chased it

I'm not through with my changes,

I've got a long way still to run

I'm going to play this show even if nobody comes

But when love comes tumbling down

When love comes tumbling down

When love comes tumbling down

I will wear a crown
