Crossing Over

I hear voices, people think I'm crazy

they can talk but it doesn't really phase me

late at night when the lights go down

when I close my eyes I hear the sound

of people I don't know, I have visions

forced to watch and not make a decision

I feel something come over me

then what no one sees is clear to me

TELL HER I'M A FORTUNE TELLER

AND I CAN SEE THE WORLD GO ROUND

OVER, WHEN I'M CROSSING OVER, I WILL SEND A MESSAGE DOWN

I see the future in every hand that I hold

I know you're gonna live to grow so old

you'll be beautiful, strong and kind

and I know in the end that you'll never be mine

cause every night in my dreams it comes to me

I can see my own death like a movie

I'll be gone but I won't move on

till I let you know that I still live on

I live on and on, I live on and on

TELL HER I'M A FORTUNE TELLER

AND I CAN SEE THE WORLD GO ROUND

OVER, WHEN I'M CROSSING OVER, I WILL SEND A MESSAGE DOWN

I stand stationary, watch the world pass by

every relative grieve by a graveside

every sympathy, words of regret

for a life that hasn't even got started yet

I feel the pain of people as they let go

I have to live knowing what they don't know

the only answer to the question why

is that no one really dies it's just a long goodbye

TELL HER I'M A FORTUNE TELLER

AND I CAN SEE THE WORLD GO ROUND

OVER, WHEN I'M CROSSING OVER, I WILL SEND A MESSAGE DOWN
