Tried to take it all away
   Learn her freedom just inside a day
   And find her soul
   To find their fears allayed
  
   Tried to make her love their own
   They took her love they left her there
   They gave her nothing back
   That she would want to own
  
   Gold and silver rings and stones
   Dances slowly of the moon
   No-one else can know
   She stands alone
  
   Sleeping dreams will reach for her
   She cannot say the words they need
   She knows she's alone
   And she is free
  
  
   [Chorus:]
   Ocean gypsy of the moon
   The sun has made a thousand nights
   For you to hold
   Ocean gypsy where are you
   The shadows followed by the stars
   Have turned to gold, turned to gold
  
   Then she met a hollow soul
   Filled him with her light
   And was consoled she was the moon
   And he, the sun was gold
  
   Eyes were blinded with his light
   The sun she gave
   Reflected back the night
   The moon was waning almost out of sight
  
   Softly ocean gypsy calls
   Silence holds the stars awhile
   They smile sadly
   For her where she falls
  
   Just the time before the dawn
   The sea is hushed
   The ocean calls her
   Day has taken her and now she's gone
  
   [Chorus]
  
   No-one noticed when she died
   Ocean gypsy shackled to the tide
   The ebbing waves were turning
   Spreading wide
  
   Something gone within her eyes
   Her fingers lifeless stroke the sand
   Her battered soul was lost
   She was abandoned
  
   Silken threads like wings still shine
   Winds take pleasure still make patterns
   In her lovely hair
   So dark and fine
  
   Stands on high beneath the seas
   Cries no more
   Her tears have dried
   Oceans weep for her the ocean sighs
  
   [Chorus]
