| Endless dark, the town’s asleep — in every cabin someone weeps
|
| The blight is creeping for some other prey
|
| He didn’t leave, but tried his best — to save the townsmen from the pest
|
| All medic gone but he did choose to stay — did not turn away
|
| Staring at the stars each night, waiting for a sign
|
| Writing down four lines — a vision to rhyme
|
| There’s no way to flee the true prophecy
|
| Who will stop the sands of time?
|
| He was born a merchant’s son — called Michel de Nostredame
|
| Divinations that will stand all tim
|
| Favoured by the Medici — his art of haling and foresee
|
| The secret of his quatrains, can’t you see?
|
| They’re pure mystery
|
| Staring at the stars each night, waiting for a sign
|
| Writing down four lines — a vision to rhyme
|
| There’s no way to flee the true prophecy
|
| Who will stop the sands of time?
|
| Through centuries and history — time will show what’s wrong and what’s right
|
| Did the stars lie or was he alight — did he have the might
|
| To see through the night — to the other side
|
| Staring at the stars each night, waiting for a sign |
| Writing down four lines — a vision to rhyme
|
| There’s no way to flee the true prophecy
|
| Who will stop the sands of time?
|
| Staring at the stars each night, waiting for a sign (Et tempus fugit — ut
|
| mortem vincit)
|
| Writing down four lines — a vision to rhyme
|
| There’s no way to flee the true prophecy
|
| Who will stop the sands of time? |
