Drake, Nick - Strange Meeting II Lyrics






Deep down in the depths of forgotten dreams
So far away so long ago it seems
The memory comes of a distant beach
Pale sand stretching far from reach
It was then I found my princess of the sand.

As I traced the foam, pebbles beneath my feet
I looked behind, I saw this one so sweet
She came to me and I saw in her eyes
The heavy toll of a thousand sighs
I called her my princess of the sand.

She stared at me and my mind was in a maze
As we moved along in a summer sea-dream haze
She moved her mouth but there came no sound
The message she brought can never be found
But I called her my princess in the sand.

One moment we walked with the night breeze in our face
Then I looked, she'd gone. of her presence there was no trace
Where she went or came from who can know
Or if she'll ever return to help me know
Who she is, my princess of the sand.

Sometime when the summer nights come back
I'll go back to the sea, follow that sandy track
I'll look around, and I'll hope to find
That strange young dream, close behind
I'll call her my princess of the sand.

  1. V.... E....

    bem profundo e melancólico, gênio.

  2. r.... v....

    cant listen to the entire track. this hurts so much , i whine for that dear one , something i can never have. Why do people just disappear out of your life.

  3. N.... C....

    les chansons de nick sont saisissantes et hantent esprit et ame ,je ne trouve pas cette qualité chez la majorité des autres artistes ,des chansons datant de 40 ans et sont vives comme hier ,c'est ca le talent musical...

  4. C.... R....

    I keep having this fantasy where I travel back in time & make out with him!! Sorry! I canny help it! HE SO HOT!!!

    C.... R....

    i imagine myself taking care of him, wash his hair, kiss him, sit in his room

    C.... R....

    fairy floss he’s dead, stop fan girling

  5. P.... S....

    Possibly the most haunting song of all time. Nick Drake was pure genius.

  6. R.... H....

    . How similar is the guitar part to Anne?

    R.... H....

    Nick, you are magic

  7. S.... W....

    To my ears there is purity, beauty, poetry and calmness beyond any other artist that I have heard. A sublime, unique talent was given to Nick.

  8. m.... w....

  9. M.... T....

    so beautiful. so sad.

    M.... T....

    shut up gimp

  11. T.... ....

    She came to me and I saw in her eyes
    The heavy toll of a thousand *SIGHS*

  12. m.... m....

    A rischio di fare psicologia da 2 soldi questa canzone così dolce e struggente è un racconto meraviglioso sull'incontro dell'uomo con il suo femminile interiore, l'Anima, l'amica, la musa. Anche se si dubita a volte che questa parte ci parli e si mostri, il suo messaggio non andrà mai perso....

  13. L.... G....

    Everything was beautiful about Nick. This is an example.

    L.... G....

    yeah youre right.,he is beatiful.another example "Saturday  Sun" would be perfect for a wedding(just my opinion)
    sorry i know my english isnt very good...

    have a nice day

    L.... G....

    Lisa-Marie Glive I always wanted to pattern my life like his. play perfect music then die young. he's like the James Dean of music

    L.... G....

    Dying young is very over rated.

  14. O.... P....

    2 people didn't like this clip??????????????? Unbelievable. Maybe just a Linda Ronstadt fan

    O.... P....

    Linda also kicked some serious ass!

  15. O.... P....

    Hard to believe this is a demo. gone way too soon Nick ; (

  16. r.... ....

    It´s one of the most beautiful songs, I have ever heard. Eva-Catrin Reinhardt

  17. P.... ....

    My Favourite Nick tune

  18. C.... ....

    I'll call her my princess of the sand..

  19. k.... k....

    milk and honey was until now (^.^)

  20. m.... ....

    I think it's "the heavy toll of a thousand sighs", instead of eyes.

  21. g.... ....

    I just love the beauty of this song due to the fact that I can feel and relate to this song based on personal experience.
    See, I knew this one girl, who've I've been friends with for almost 10 years, and i could conclude that I don't remember a time when i didn't like her or didn't enjoy her company. But ever since she left my school, she and a few of other friends who also go way back pop in my dreams once in a while.

  22. J.... S....

    Beautiful.

  23. C.... M....

    This is my favourite Nick Drake by far.... I have no idea why....

  24. S.... ....

    @welles42
    Couldn't agree more :)

  25. C.... O....

    Amazing song. It stays in my heart every time I hear it. A true original, Nick Drake!
