Lyrics

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, yeah Fade away, fade away Vanish into smoke Fade away, fade away Break the crystal ball Oh! It's the sign! Feels like the time! Oh! Ooh On a small world, west of wonder Somewhere, nowhere, oh 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 And it's the sign of the southern cross It's the sign of the southern cross Alright! Sail away, oh! To the sign! And you'll fade away, fade away Break the crystal ball Fade away, fade away I can't accept it anymore Ooh, yeah Oh, oh, oh-ho-ho, yeah Well there's a big black shape lookin' up at me, yeah He said "I know where you ought to be" He said "Come with me and I'll give you desire But first you got to burn, burn, burn, burn in fire!" Oh! Yeah, oh Ooh Oh my, oh my, oh my Yeah Yeah Then a little white shape looked out at me He said "Heaven is where you ought to be" He said "Come with me 'cause I know just what to do" But I said, go away, I'm gonna burn in hell with all of you! With every last one of you! Yes, I'll see you down there! Alright! Yeah, ooh Remember On and on, on and on it! On and on, on and on it! Alright! On and on, on and on it! Now one last big one On and on, on and on it! Yeah! Alright! Alright! Yeah They say that life's a carousel Spinning fast, you got to ride it well The world is full of kings and queens Who blind your eyes, steal your dreams It's heaven and hell Oh, hell They tell you black is really white The moon is just the sun at night When you walk in golden halls You get to keep the gold that falls It's heaven and hell Oh, oh, oh Fool, Fool You've got to bleed for the dancer Fool, fool Look for the answer, yeah Fool, fool, oh, yeah! Yeah
