Across The World Tonight

Across the world tonight,

there are ships of light

Shining down on everyone

From the darkest shores to

marble corridors

A new age has begun

I've got no explanation how

those ships came to be there

illuminating, the nations' everywhere

Across the world tonight,

there's a wondrous sight

And we gaze with childlike eyes

We can only guess we hold our breath

where the future lies

Something beautiful's coming

somehow I know there

beyond the dawn

We've been left in

the darkness too long

And tomorrow when we rise

We'll see with other eyes

And know at last that we belong

We'll reach out to the skies

And find the answers there

That we've been searching for so long

Across the world tonight,

Across the world tonight,

around the firelight

The stories have begun

How it came to be,

this night of mystery

Of wonders yet to come

I've got no explanation how

those ships came to be there

illuminating the nations

everywhere

Something beautiful's coming

somehow I know there

beyond the down

We've been left in the

darkness for too long.
