lyrics
BEYOND THE PALE
(Laura Powers/John Tirro)
There is a line around my soul
A place where I dare not go
Tonight my heart sets sail
Far beyond the pale
He blew in from the sea
Bringing tales from the mainland
Of lands where silk was gold
His eyes were afire
His voice held me spellbound
With the ruby-rich unknown
Thought I looked everywhere
But now my journey has begun
For I've discovered
There is a line around my soul
A place where I dare not go
Tonight my heart sets sail
Far beyond the pale
Then he sang of the sea
And of beautiful maidens
He smiled and bowed to me
Thought I looked everywhere
But now my journey has begun
For I've discovered
There is a line around my soul
A place where I dare not go
Tonight my heart sets sail
Far beyond the pale
