Chris De Burgh - Discovery lyrics

Lady love, go back to sleep

Dry the tears from your eyes

But I cannot stay with thee

Until the morning

For the dawn is breaking

And my ship is waiting for me

And I must go

But I'll be back, yes, before this year is over

And we sailed across the sea

'Til we found America

'Round the Cape of Storms

We set our sails for home

And when the sea was roaring

And the Lord I called

To help my drowning men

I saw the light, yes, the candle in your window

And I have brought you silver

And I have brought you gold

And spices from the Indies in the hold

I've seen ships on the horizon

That I'd swear we're going down

And now I know for certain

The world is round

I have seen, my eyes have seen

Oh, one day says Galileo

A man will reach the sky

And see the world completely

From outside

And gazing down from yonder

On a world of blue and green

He'll say with eyes of wonder

I have seen, I have seen

My eyes have seen
