Farside of the World

A black shadow is crawling like a deadly spider
we're all waiting in silence for the lonely rider
For he will lead the way
for he will save the town
we have to leave today
before the moon is down

I'm haunted by dreams of a holy mission
I follow the signs of my magic vision

We have to dig a hole
and he will be our eyes
we have to reach a goal
before the sun will rise

Journey to the farside of the world
No one will catch me when I fall
Follow the trail of fire
No one will hear me when I call
Journey to the farside of the world
A distant place a future time
We'll climb the tallest spire
I will raise the cross and the bells will chime

We'll pass over the river to the silver tower
run before the clock strikes the final hour

He saw it in a dream
he knew he had to die
we never heard him scream
we never heard him cry

Journey to the farside of the world
Make them believe the dream is true
Follow the trail of fire
The moon came down my time is through
Journey to the farside of the world
This is the way it was meant to be
We'll climb the tallest spire
The shadow is gone the town is free
