The Sign(Ian C. Burden / Jo Callis / Philip Oakey)

 

Around the nation, around the world
What's been going down ?
A million voices, one question hurled
Heard in every town
All of the people, one simple plea
What will happen now ?
Asked in concern for their destiny
Got to know somehow

 

They say
They say

 

Everything will be fine
Everything will be fine
Everything will be fine
I saw the sign

 

So if you want to know what's going on
Going round and round
You'd better ask before your world is gone
Gone without a sound

 

Everything will be fine
Everything will be fine
Everything will be fine
I saw the sign

Lyrics by Philip Oakey

Comment

Yet another great composition by Phil. If I didn't know better (Which I don't) I'd say that this song has a somewhat religious quality to it :

 

Everything will be fine
Everything will be fine
Everything will be fine
I saw the sign

I wonder what sign it is, that he has seen, it could easily the sign of a prophet, but it could also be the sign of a change in ... relationships ??? :

 

So if you want to know what's going on
Going round and round
You'd better ask before your world is gone
Gone without a sound

 

Beware, your world may NOT exist tomorrow, listen to your heart AND your friends etc. This is true both of our planet AND of the small worlds, in which we have our daily lives, husbands, lovers, children and friends. So TAKE CARE.
