We set sail from the harbor On the trade routes of old Where the tall ships of spices Bring the bright dreams of gold There are towns full of travelers Where the stories are told Of the lost and the longing in the little known language Of the wayward and bold On our way to the crossings We had to leave where we'd been 'Cause the roads we came over had come to an end So we meet here as strangers, bonded as friends We were torn from the fabric But the threads of our lives are beginning to mend And the hardest mile to travel Is that first away from home When we wonder at the hunger of being alone But then these tears flow with laughter With these friends we never knew They've been waiting at the crossings For this to come true The world of wonder set in motion is waiting for you There are clues in the legend and gifts in the signs That lead to the treasure we've been searching to find Like a map newly written of an ancient design We have come to the crossings Like the travelers before us, through the ages of time And the hardest mile to travel Is that first away from home When we wonder at the hunger of being alone But then these tears flow with laughter With these friends we never knew They've been waiting at the crossings For this to come true The world of wonder set in motion is waiting for you
