"Fare Thee Well" lyrics - THE ALAN PARSONS PROJECT

THE ALAN PARSONS PROJECT
"Fare Thee Well"

In a dream within a dream
We saw beyond the sky
And drew a constellation
In the shape of Gemini
We turned our sails into the wind
And climbed up to the heights
Raised a glass and made a toast
And wrote our name in lights

[Pre-Chorus:]
Forever
And ever
Children of the moon
In the lap of the gods

[Chorus:]
(Fare thee well)
(Fare thee well)
(Fare thee well)
(Fare thee well)

Echoes and effigies
Whispering your name
Drifting farther from your voice
Silenced with so much left to say
And the space that you left behind
Cannot be disguised
Raise a glass and make a toast
To one in paradise

[Pre-Chorus:]
Forever
And ever
Silence be damned
Your songs will live on!

[Chorus:]
(Fare thee well)
(Fare thee well)
(Fare thee well)
(Fare thee well)

[Bridge:]
Time and tide will carry me
From the last goodbye
I can hear, don't answer me
With the sky in your eyes (Sky in your eyes, sky in your eyes, sky in your eyes)
When the raven tapped upon your door
He was singing your own tune
Son of wolf and father of words
The curtains closed too soon

[Chorus:]
Fare thee well (Fare thee well)
(Fare thee well)
Fare thee well (Fare thee well)
(Fare thee well)
Fare thee well (Fare thee well)
