Across the world tonight, there are ships of light Shining down on everyone From the darkest shores to marble corridors A new age has begun
I've got no explanation How those ships came to be there Illuminating the nations Everywhere
Across the worls tonight, There's a wonderous sight And we gaze with childlike eyes We can only guess as we hold our breath where the future lies
Something beautiful's coming Somehow I know there beyond the dawn We've been left in the darkness for too long
And tomorrow when we rise We'll see with other eyes And know at last that we belong We'll reach out to the skies And find the answers there That we've been searching for so long
Across the world tonight
Across the world tonight, Around the firelight The stories have begun How it came to be, this night of mystery Of wonders yet to come
