Signs lyrics

Signs that burn like shooting stars

That pass across the nighttime skies

They reach out in their mystic language

For us to read between the lines

Some are born who would defy them

Others still who would deny them

Signs

Signs like moments hung suspended

Echoes just beneath the heart

Speak in voices half-remembered

And half-remembered play their part

Signs that come as we lay sleeping

Left behind for our keeping

Signs

Sail along, sail along the reefs

And the coves inside your soul

Sail along, sail along in search of a star

that you can hold

And we journey far, to where that star

May lead to, lead to

Signs that whisper in the dreams

Of sailors and of river queens

Of paupers and of men with means

It all depends on how it reads

And some are born to never need them

Others still who never read them

Signs

Sail along, sail along the reefs

And the coves inside your soul

Sail along, sail along in search of a star

that you can hold

Don't we journey far to where that star

May lead to, lead to

Signs

Signs

Some are born to never need them

Others still who never read them

Signs
