[Verse 1]
Are you ready to cross over
Are you ready to let go?
To face the final curtain
In the land of I don't know
Jesus was a wise man
And everyone's a saint
Are you ready to cross over
Are you ready?
You can read the good and bad book
And bring the bad book home
But is it fact or fiction
There's just one way to know
Buddha was dancing
Underneath the fig oak tree
He was ready to cross over
He was ready
[Chorus]
So I hold on, hold on
It's good that you believe, but it's better if you know
So hold on, hold on
Someone's there to catch you when you're ready to let go
[Verse 2]
I was sitting by the Ganji
Looking for another way
But all roads lead to Heaven
No matter what they say
Krishna was a good man
Why was he so blue?
He was ready to cross over
He was ready
[Chorus]
So I hold on, hold on
It's good that you believe, but it's better if you know
So hold on, hold on
Someone's there to catch you when you're ready to let go
[Verse 3]
Are you ready to cross over
Are you ready to let go?
To face the final curtain
In the land of I don't know
Everyone can get there
'Cause we all have a soul
Are you ready to cross over?
Are you ready?
[Chorus]
So I hold on, hold on
It's good that you believe, but it's better if you know
So hold on, hold on
Someone's there to catch you when you're ready to let go
Someone's there to catch you when you're ready to let go
Someone's there to catch you when you're ready to let go
That's the real thing, isn't it?
Are you ready to cross over
Are you ready to let go?
To face the final curtain
In the land of I don't know
Jesus was a wise man
And everyone's a saint
Are you ready to cross over
Are you ready?
You can read the good and bad book
And bring the bad book home
But is it fact or fiction
There's just one way to know
Buddha was dancing
Underneath the fig oak tree
He was ready to cross over
He was ready
[Chorus]
So I hold on, hold on
It's good that you believe, but it's better if you know
So hold on, hold on
Someone's there to catch you when you're ready to let go
[Verse 2]
I was sitting by the Ganji
Looking for another way
But all roads lead to Heaven
No matter what they say
Krishna was a good man
Why was he so blue?

[Chorus]
So I hold on, hold on
It's good that you believe, but it's better if you know
So hold on, hold on
Someone's there to catch you when you're ready to let go
[Verse 3]
Are you ready to cross over
Are you ready to let go?
To face the final curtain

It's good that you believe, but it's better if you know
So hold on, hold on
Someone's there to catch you when you're ready to let go
Someone's there to catch you when you're ready to let go
Someone's there to catch you when you're ready to let go
That's the real thing, isn't it?
