"Henry Hudson" lyrics

"Henry Hudson"

White light lays above
The Henry Hudson riverbank
And you will see a lady standing
Stealing past a happy ending
Staring at the happy landing

Her heart beats loud and fast
Her love looks like a broken glass

White light lays above the riverbank
A sinking ship has brought the light upon the land
And Henry Hudson knows not where the lady's standing

A lonely shoulder must grow older
Waiting on the riverbank
