The Sign of the Southern Cross (7:46)

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 (a) time, hmmm

On a small world west of wonder
Somewhere, nowhere all
There's a rainbow that will shimmer
When the summer fall
If an echo doesn't answer
When it hears a certain song
Then the beast is free to wander
But never is seen around

And it's the sign of the Southern Cross
It's the sign of the Southern Cross, alright!
Sail away
To the sign
Ohh

From the book the word is spoken
Whispers from forgotten psalm
Gather all around the young ones
They will make us strong
Reach above your dreams of pleasure
Given life to those who died
Look beyond your own horizons
Sail the ship of sign

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 anymore

Ahh

On a real world west of wonder
Somewhere, nowhere ohh
There's a rainbow see it shimmer
When the summer fall
From the book the word is spoken
Whispers from forgotten psalm
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, fade on
