[Verse] The stars were whisperin' secrets In Babylon's endless night Sheridan stood on the bridge With thoughts he dared not write A shadow over Z'ha'dum A war no one could see In the heart of the station He found his destiny [Verse 2] Delenn spoke in riddles With candlelight in her hand A Minbari prophecy He'd soon understand The council chambers echoed With voices old and wise Sheridan's path was lit By those ancient Knowing eyes [Chorus] From the ashes of the battle A leader rose so tall In the halls of Babylon He would heed the call Sheridan by the fire Held the dreams of all the lands From captain’s helm to president He took it in his hands [Verse 3] Garibaldi’s laughter Lenier’s quiet gaze Susan’s burning questions In those hopeful days Londo played with shadows G'Kar spoke of light On the edge of the galaxy They faced the endless night [Bridge] The whispers of the Vorlons The shadows' dark embrace In a dance of cosmic visions He'd find his place Through tears and fire's fury He rose to lead the free In the chronicles of Babylon His legacy [Verse 4] Marcus stood by firmly With a ranger's heart so true Through trials and tribulations They saw the journey through A dream of unity Amidst the stars so wide Together they would wander Forever side by side
