Rocking through the night
|
All is silent...Southern Cross
|
It's easy for me to write
|
Even though I wonder...
|
But I feel nothing seems lost
|
We're still full of hope
|
Although the trip is grinding
|
|
What can I say
|
Remember how we talked about
|
A world that's free
|
It may be hard to find
|
The land where war and hatred ceased to be
|
And the ship is sailing on across the ocean
|
|
We said farewell to yesterday
|
But in a year and one more day
|
You'll read the headlines everywhere
|
About the daring messengers
|
Who found an island in the Sea
|
Untouched by misery
|
|
I'm wearing your bandanna
|
Your picture's in my mind
|
Well concealed
|
And the vision of your face
|
Is never far away no no
|
It's always with me
|
So your smile is my companian
|
Till I'm back with you again
|
|
We said farewell to yesterday
|
But in a year and one more day
|
You'll raed the news throughout the land
|
About some new-age emigrants
|
Who found an island in the Sea
|
Untouched by misery
|
