Dead Can Dance - Black Stream Lyrics

Where the stars sleep in the calm black stream, Like some great lily, pale Ophelia floats, Slowly floats, wound in her veils like a dream. Half heard in the woods, halloos from distant throats. A thousand years has sad Ophelia gone Glimmering on the water, a phantom fair: A thousand years her soft distracted song Has waked the answering evening air. Dead Can Dance Lyrics Black Stream Lyrics
