Lyrics

[ti:village on the sand]
[ar:blackmore's night]
[00:32.584] I saw three ships a-sailing in from across the sea
[00:37.407] Strangers near were welcome but for curiosity
[00:42.232] But come they did and when they did ready they did stand
[00:50.560] And things would never be the same in our Village on the Sand...
[01:01.26] When the ships pulled in to dock the villagers did hide
[01:05.615] When trouble came it usually was brought upon the tide
[01:10.489] When the pirates disembarked they were making plans
[01:18.818] And from then on things were not the same in our Village on the Sand...
[01:24.507] na~na~na~na~na~na~na~na~na~na~
[01:24.862] our Village on the Sand...
[01:34.107] na~na~na~na~na~na~na~na~na~na~
[01:41.318] our Village on the Sand...
[01:53.810] The smugglers came into our town and many sought to run
[01:58.584] I stood my ground bravely and came face to face with one
[02:03.715] Time and travel on the seas weathered face and hand
[02:11.794] He was different than others in my Village on the Sand...
[02:17.26] na~na~na~na~na~na~na~na~na~na~
[02:24.396] my Village on the Sand...
[02:27.239] na~na~na~na~na~na~na~na~na~na~
[02:34.201] my Village on the Sand...
[03:06.545] He told me of the years he'd spent on the stormy seas
[03:10.56] Then he spoke a poet's words of philosophy
[03:16.52] And when he had to leave again he asked me for my hand
[03:24.278] And I knew I'd never see again my Village on the Sand...
[03:29.814] na~na~na~na~na~
[03:34.638] na~na~na~na~na~
[03:37.76] my Village on the Sand...
[03:39.767] na~na~na~na~na~
[03:44.393] na~na~na~na~na~
[03:46.779] my Village on the Sand...
[03:49.774] na~na~na~na~na~
[03:54.653] na~na~na~na~na~
[03:59.376] na~na~na~na~na~
[04:04.155] na~na~na~na~na~
[04:06.693] my Village on the Sand...
