The Sign of the Southern Cross

If there isn't light when no one sees Then how can I know what you might believe A story told that can't be real Somehow must reflect the truth we feel, yeah Fade away, fade away Vanish into small Fade away, fade away Break the crystal ball Oh, it's the sign Feels like the time On a small world west of wonder Somewhere, nowhere, all There's a rainbow that will shimmer When the summer falls If an echo doesn't answer When it hears a certain sound Then the beast is free to wander But never is seen around Then it's the sign of the southern cross It's the sign of the southern cross All right Sail away To the sky From the book the word is spoken Whispers from forgotten song Gather all around the young ones They will make us strong Reach up above your dreams of pleasure Give a life to those who die Look beyond your own horizons Sail the ship of sighs And it's the sign of the southern cross It's the sign of the southern cross Fade away, fade away Break the crystal ball Fade away, fade away I can't accept it any more On a real world west of wonder Somewhere, nowhere, all There's a rainbow, see it shimmer When the summer falls From the book the word is spoken Whispers from forgotten song Gather all around the young ones They will make us strong It's the sign of the southern cross It's the sign of the southern cross Don't live for pleasure Make life your treasure Fade away Eight miles high, about to fall And no one there to catch you Look for the sign, the time The sign of the southern cross Play on
