If there isn't light when no one sees How can I know what you might believe A story told that cant be real Somehow must reflect the truth we feel
Fade away, fade away Vanish into small Fade away, fade away Break the crystal ball
It's the sign
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 song Then the beast is free to wander But never seen around
It's the sign of the southern cross It's the sign of the southern cross
Sail away To the sky
From the book the word is spoken Whispers from forgotten psalms 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
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 psalms 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
