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 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    All right   Sail away   To the sign   Ohh      From the book the word is spoken   Whispers from forgotten psalms   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 signs      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      Ohh   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, yeah
