I think it's to the fans. I mean, we're crying becuase it's all over and there's no more waiting, but then again "You and I will meet again", like on the DVD?<P>Lay down<BR>Your sweet and weary head<BR>Night is falling<BR>You have come to journey's end (You can now leave the theater)<BR>Sleep now<BR>And dream of the ones (Films) who came before<BR>They are calling<BR>From across the distant shore (Your DVD shelf, because you're still in the theater)<P><BR>Why do you weep?<BR>What are these tears upon your face? (It's over, it was great)<BR>Soon you will see<BR>All of your fears will pass away<BR>Safe in my arms<BR>You're only sleeping. <BR>(In a daze?)<P>What can you see<BR>On the horizon?<BR>Why do the white gulls call?<BR>Across the sea<BR>A pale moon rises<BR>The ships have come to carry you home. <BR>(What is this? Simple euphoria!)<P>And all will turn<BR>To silver glass (Tears in your eyes)<BR>A light on the water<BR>All Souls pass (At the Grey Havens scene, and everyone leaving the theater but you.)<P>Hope fades<BR>Into the world of night<BR>Through shadows falling<BR>Out of memory and time <BR>(It's all over, depression sets in.)<P>Don't say<BR>We have come now to the end<BR>White shores are calling<BR>You and I will meet again<BR>(You can watch it again and again and again!)<P>And you'll be here in my arms<BR>Just sleeping <BR>(Comforted, nothing can happen while you're watching LotR)<P>And all will turn <BR>To silver glass (Again, the tears)<BR>A light on the water<BR>Grey ships pass <BR>Into the West <P><BR>That's my opinion, anyway.
