Beyond the Pale - Laura Powers

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
