Alan Parsons

There are pyramids in my head
There's one underneath my bead
And my lady's getting cranky
Every possible location
Has a simple explanation
And it isn't hanky-panky

I had read
Somewhere in a book, they improve all your food and your wine
It said, that everything you grow in your garden would taste pretty fine
Instead, all I ever get is a pain in the neck and a
Yap yap yap yap yap yap yap

I've consulted all the sages
I could find in the yellow pages
But there aren't many of them
And the myan panoramas
On my pyramid pajamas
Haven't helped my little problem
I've been told
Someone in the know can be sure that his luck is as
Good as gold, money in the bank and you don't even pay for it
If you fold, a dollar bill in the shape of the pyramid that's printed on the
back
It's no lie
You can keep the edge of a razor as sharp as an
Eagle's eye, you can grow a hedge that is vertically straight over
Ten feet high, all you really need is a pyramid and just a little luck
I had read, somewhere in a book, they improve all your food and wine
I'd been told, someone in the know can be sure of his good luck
It's no lie, all you need is a little bit of pyramidic help

There's not a day
I don't think of your name
The state that I'm in
You're completely to blame
No words left to say
Turn my dreams all to grey
And I'm more and more
lost without you
You're a storm in my head
That really blew a new day
A liquid design
Is what you do to my mind
No words left to say
Cause my mind's gone away
And I'm more and more
lost without you
More and more lost without you
I was found but then
I totally lost you
Don't know a soul that
could ever doubt you
That's why I'm more and more
lost without you
More and more

There's not a day
I don't think of your name
The state that I'm in
You're completely to blame
No words left to say
Turn my dreams all to grey
And I'm more and more
lost without you
More and more lost without you
I was found but then
I totally lost you
Don't know a soul that
could ever doubt you
That's why I'm more and more
lost without you
More and more

You're a storm in my head
That really blew a new day
A liquid design
Is what you do to my mind
No words left to say
Cause my mind's gone away
And I'm more and more
lost without you
More and more lost without you
I was found but then
I totally lost you
Don't know a soul that
could ever doubt you
That's why I'm more and more
lost without you
More and more
More and more lost without you
More and more lost without you
More and more
More and more lost without you
I was found but then
I totally lost you
Don't know a soul that
could ever doubt you
That's why I'm more and more
lost without you
More and more

Lyrics by Alan Parsons

You drink the wine
You play the fool
You cross the line
You lose your cool
But no one cares
Still no one cares

You raise the bar
Lost in a trance
One bridge too far
No second chance
But no one cares
Still no one cares

We play the game
We hold our own
We fight to win
We stand alone

You had a dream
You cast the dice
Your shady scheme


You paid the price
But no one cares
Still no one cares

We play the game
With hearts of stone
You lose again
You're on your own

A turning tide
A streak of light
Arms open wide
The end's in sight
And someone cares
Yes someone cares

We play the game
We hold our own
We fight to win
We stand alone

As far as my eyes can see

There are Shadows
approaching me

And to those I left behind
I wanted you to Know
You've always shared
my deepest thoughts
You follow where I go
And oh when I'm old and wise
Bitter words mean
little to me
Autumn Winds will
blow right through me
And someday
in the mist of time
When they asked me
if I knew you
I'd smile and say
you were a friend of mine
And the sadness would be
Lifted from my eyes
Oh when I'm old and wise
As far as my Eyes can see

There are shadows
surrounding me

And to those I leave behind
I want you all to know
You've always Shared
my darkest hours
I'll miss you when I go
And oh when I'm old and wise
Heavy words that
tossed and blew me
Like Autumn winds that
will blow right through me
And someday
in the mist of time
When they ask you
if you knew me
Remember that
You were a frined of mine
As the final curtain falls
before my eyes
Oh when I'm Old and wise
As far as my eyes can see

If I had a mind to
I wouldn't want to think like you
And if I had time to
I wouldn't want to talk to you

I don't care
What you do
I wouldn't want to be like you

If I was high class
I wouldn't need a buck to pass
And if I was a fall guy
I wouldn't need no alibi

I don't care
What you do
I wouldn't want to be like you

Back on the bottom line
Diggin' for a lousy dime
If I hit a mother lode
I'd cover anything that showed

I don't care
What you do
I wouldn't want to be like you

In a matter of a moment
Lost till the end of time
It's the evening of another day
And the end of mine

Now the starlight which has found me
Lost for a million years
Tries to linger as it fills my eyes
Till it disappears

Could it be that somebody else is
Looking into my mind

Some other place
Somewhere
Some other time

Some other place
Somewhere
Some other time

Like a mirror held before me
Large as the sky is wide
And the image is reflected
Back to the other side

Could it be that somebody else is
Looking into my mind

Some other place
Somewhere
Some other time

Some other place
Somewhere
Some other time

I breakdown in the middle and lose my thread
No one can understand a word that I say
When I break down just a little and lose my head
Nothing I try to do can work the same way

Any time it happened I'd get over it
With a little help from all my friends
Anybody else could see what's wrong with me
But they walk away and just pretend

When I breakdown

I breakdown in the middle and lose my thread
No one can understand a word that I say
When I break down just a little and lose my head
Nothing I try to do can work the same way

Where are all the friends who used to talk to me
All they ever told me was good news
People that I've never seen are kind to me
Is it any wonder I'm confused

When I break down, when I break down

Freedom, freedom, we will not obey
Freedom, freedom, take the wall away
Freedom, freedom, we will not obey
Freedom, freedom, take them all away

If it's getting harder to face every day
Don't let it show, don't let it show
Though it's getting harder to take what they say
Just let it go, just let it go

And if it hurts when they mention my name
Say you don't know me
And if it helps when they say I'm to blame
Say you don't own me

Even if it's taking the easy way out
Keep it inside of you
Don't give in
Don't tell them anything
Don't let it
Don't let it show

Even though you know it's the wrong thing to say
Say you don't care, say you don't care
Even if you want to believe there's a way
I won't be there, I won't be there

But if you smile when they mention my name
They'll never know you
And if you laugh when they say I'm to blame
They'll never own you

Even if you feel you've got nothing to hide
Keep it inside of you
Don't give in
Don't tell them anything
Don't let it
Don't let it show

It's almost a feeling you can touch in the air
You look all around you but nobody's there
It's been a long time now since you've been aware
That someone is watching you (he's gonna get you)

Sooner or later when your big chances come
You'll look for the catches but there will be none
Remember before you grab the money and run
That someone is watching you (he's gonna get you)

Before you run and hide
He's gonna get you
You got no choice
Because you can't escape the voice

Jumping at shadows that come up from behind
Scared of the darkness that's there in your mind
You're frightened to move because of what you might find
That someone is watching you (he's gonna get you)

Before you run and hide
He's gonna get you
You got no choice
Because you can't escape the voice

Gaze at the sky
And picture a memory
Of days in your life
You knew what it meant to be happy and free
With time on your side

Remember your daddy
When no one was wiser
Your ma used to say
That you would go further than he ever could
With time on your side

Think of a boy with the stars in his eye
Longing to reach them but frightened to try
Sadly, you'd say, someday, someday

But day after day
The show must go on
And time slipped away
Before you could build any castles in Spain
The chance had gone by

With nothing to say
And no one to say it to

Nothing has changed
You've still got it all to do
Surely you know
The chance has gone by

Think of a boy with the stars in his eye
Longing to reach them but frightened to try
Sadly, you'd say, someday, someday

But, day after day
The show must go on
And you gaze at the sky
And picture a memory of days in your life
With time on your side

With time on your side
(Day after day the show must go on)
With time on your side
(Day after day the show must go on)

I breakdown in the middle and lose my thread
No one can understand a word that I say

Well I sympathise completely but there's nothing I can do
I am just a humble servant with a message here for you
Well I know you have good reasons
and there's things you've got to do
But the boatman won't be waiting
and he's leaving here with you
And you can't take it with you
No matter what you do
No you can't take it with you
Not the place you're going to
(One more mile, one more road, one last bridge, one less load)

Well I sympathise completely but there's nothing I can do
I am just obeying orders, I'm a simple soul like you
Well you really are persuasive, but I've heard it all before
And the boatman's getting restless
as he stands upon the shore
And you can't take it with you No matter what you do
No you can't take it with you
Not the place you're going to

Can't take it with you

And I
could easily fall from grace
Then another would
take my place
For the chance
to behold your face
As the days of my life are
but grains of sand
As they fall from
your open hand
At the call
of the winds command
Many words are spoken
when theres nothing to say
The fall upon
the ears of those
who don't know the way
To read between the lines
that lead between the lines
that lead me to you
All that I ask you
Is show me how to follow you
and I'll obey
Teach me how to reach
you I can't find my own way
Let me see the light
let me be the light

As the sun turns slowly
around the sky
Till the shadow
of night is high
The eagle will learn to fly
As the days of his life are
but grains of sand
As they
fall from your open hand
And vanish upon the land

Many words are spoken
when theres nothing to say
The fall
upon the ears of those
who don't know the way
To read between the lines
that lead between the lines
that lead me to you
Show me how to follow you
and I'll obey
Teach me how to reach you
I can't find my own way
Let me see the light
let me be the light

And so with no warning
no last goodbye
In the dawn
of the morning sky
The eagle will rise again

To touch the sky
A dreamer must be
Someone who has more
Imagination than me

To reach the stars
A dreamer must fly
Somehow he must live more of a
Lifetime than I
For sands of time won't wait
And it may be too late

Now it is the hour and the moment
Don't let the chance go by
Your ship is sailing with the high
Tide
And all your dreams are on the
Inside
On the inside looking out, on the
Inside, looking out
Looking out, looking out, looking
Out

To change the world
A dreamer must be
Someone who has more
Determination than me

To free his sould
A dreamer must fly
Somewhere he must find a better
Reason than I
The hands of time won't wait
And we may be too late

Now is the hour and the moment
Don't let a day pass by
You ship is sailing with the high
Tide
You could be standing on the
Inside
On the inside looking out, on the
Inside, looking out
On the inside looking out, on the
Inside, looking out
Looking out, looking out, looking
Out

To touch the sky
A dreamer must be
Someone who has more
Imagination than me

To reach the stars
A dreamer must fly
Somehow he must live more of a
Lifetime than I
For sands of time won't wait
And it may be too late

Now it is the hour and the moment
Don't let the chance go by
Your ship is sailing with the high
Tide
And all your dreams are on the
Inside
On the inside looking out, on the
Inside, looking out
Looking out, looking out, looking
Out

To change the world
A dreamer must be
Someone who has more
Determination than me

To free his sould
A dreamer must fly
Somewhere he must find a better
Reason than I
The hands of time won't wait
And we may be too late

Now is the hour and the moment
Don't let a day pass by
You ship is sailing with the high
Tide
You could be standing on the
Inside
On the inside looking out, on the
Inside, looking out
On the inside looking out, on the
Inside, looking out
Looking out, looking out, looking
Out

Diamond eyes
That burn me and turn me to stone
Crystalise
And freeze me in clear monochrome

Turn me to stone; do anything you want with me
Turn me to stone; do anything you want
Stereotomy
We can make it together
Do anything you want with me
Do anything you want

Scarlet minds
Possess me and I feel no shame
Silent knives
Dissect me and I feel no pain

Stereotomy
We can make it together
Do anything you want with me
Do anything you want
Stereotomy
We can make it forever
Do anything you want with me
Do anything you want

Starlight beams
Project me in red blue and green
Velvet dreams
Protect me when I hit the screen

Stereotomy
We can make it together
Do anything you want with me, do anything you want
Stereotomy
We can make it forever
It's always the same, it's always the same
Stereotomy, we can make it
We can make it, do anything you want

Turn me to stone
Do anything you want with me
Cover my eyes
There's nothing more they need to see
Turn me to stone
Before there's nothing left of me
Make me a rock
And not what I appear to be
Turn me to stone
Turn me to stone

No clock beside my bed
Don't try to wake me
No phone upon my wall
Who's going to call

No knock upon my door
No news to shake me
Nights like the one before
I can't take no more

Beaujolais goes straight to my head
Beaujolais puts me to shame
And I don't know why I'm in this place or how I came
Beaujolais and I go crazy
Beaujolais I can't explain
But it helps me to forget the past and ease the pain

One race that I can't win
With an alter ego
One chance to sink or swim
What am I to do

One tail that I can't shake
Wherever I go he go
One circuit I can't break
It's a catch twenty two

Beaujolais goes straight to my head
Beaujolais the one to blame
And I don't know why I'm in this place or how I came
Beaujolais will be my ruin
Beaujolais I can't complain
Cause it helps me to forget the past and ease the pain

I can see the glow of a distant sun
I can feel it inside
Maybe this day could be the one

I can hear the roar of a distant crowd
They are waiting for me
Calling my name
Shouting out loud

Holding on isn't always easy
I ain't gonna change my mind

Limelight you were all I ever wanted
Since it all began
Limelight shining on me
Telling the world who I am
Limelight don't let me slip right through your fingers
There's a long way to fall
After the years of waiting
I'm gonna show them all

I can see the world in a different light
Now it's easy to say
Where I went wrong
What I did right

I can hear the beat of a different drum
Take it all in my stride
Hold my head high
Second to none

Holding on wasn't always easy
Nothing can change my mind

Limelight you were all I ever wanted since it all began
Limelight shining on me telling the world who I am
Limelight don't let me slip right through your fingers
There's a long way to fall
After the years of waiting I'm gonna show them all
Maybe the role's not easy, maybe the prize is small
After the years of waiting I'm gonna show them all

I am just a stranger, in a promised land
I am only learning a game with the rules I don't understand
Going round in circles, I've been round before
I can walk no more
I can walk no more

I am just a drifter, in an open sea
But no matter how much I try, the tide will not turn for me
Going round in circles, till I reach the shore
I am blown by so many winds
I can take no more
I can take no more

Light of the world, I stand alone
Cause I could not see the light of the world
Show me the fire, in a true believer's eye

I am just a dreamer, when I close my eyes
I can fly so close to the sun, that I can not see it rise
Going round in circles, in a silent sky
I am lost for so many worlds
I can not say why
I can not say why

Light of the world, I stand alone
Cause I could not see the light of the world
Show me the fire, in a true believer's eye

Just a traveller, on an endless flight
But no matter which way I turn, I journey into the night
Going round in circles, till the mountains fall
To believe in so many truths
Makes no sense at all
Makes no sense at all

Light of the world, I stand alone
Cause I could not see the light of the world
I was afraid, cause I could not see the light of the world
Show me the fire, in a true believer's eye

Stereotomy

Oh, Stereotomy
We can make it forever
Do anything you want with me
Do anything you want

Stereotomy
We can make it
We can make it
Do anything you want

We can make it

I am just a stranger, in a promised land
I am only learning a game
with the rules I don't understand
Going round in circles, I've been round before
I can walk no more
I am just a drifter, in an open sea
But no matter how much I try, the tide will not turn for me
Going round in circles, till I reach the shore
I am blown by so many winds

Time, flowing like a river
시간은 강물처럼 흐른다
Time, beckoning me
시간이 나를 향해 손짓하네
Who knows when we shall meet again
우리가 언제 다시 만날지는 아무도 모른다
If ever
정말인가!
But time
그러나 시간은
Keeps flowing like a river to the sea
강이 바다가 되듯 계속 흐르고있다

Goodbye my love, Maybe forever
안녕 내사랑, 어쩌면 영원토록
Goodbye my love, The tide waits for me
안녕 내사랑, 바다가 나를 기다린다
Who knows when we shall meet again
우리가 언제 다시 만날지는 아무도 모른다
If ever
정말인가!
But time
하지만 시간은
keeps flowing like a river (on and on)
to the sea, to the sea
강이 쉼없이 바다로,
바다로 흐르듯 계속 흐른다

Till it's gone forever
영원이 끝날때 까지
Gone forever
영원의 끝
Gone forevermore
언제나의 끝

Goodbye my friends, Maybe forever
안녕 내친구들, 어쩌면 영원토록
Goodbye my friends, The stars wait for me
안녕 내친구들, 별들이 나를 기다리지
Who knows where we shall meet again
우리가 어디서 다시 만날지는 아무도 모르지
If ever
정말인가!
But time
하지만 시간은
Keeps flowing like a river (on and on)
to the sea, to the sea
강이 쉼없이 바다로,
바다로 흐르듯 계속해서 흐른다

Till it's gone forever
영원이 끝날때 까지
Gone forever
영원의 끝
Gone forevermore
언제나의 끝
Never mind
걱정하지마
Never mind
괜찮아

Where do we go
from here now
that all other
children are growin up
And how do we
spend our lives
if theres noone
to lend us a hand

I dont wanna live
here no more
I dont wanna stay
Aint gonna spend
the rest of my life
quietly fading away
Games people play
you take it or you leave it
Things that they say
honor brite
If I promise you
the moon and the stars
would you believe it
Games people play
in the middle of the night
Where do we go from here now
that all of the children
have grown up
And how do we
spend our lives
knowin nobody
gives us a damn

I dont wanna live
here no more
I dont wanna stay
Aint gonna spend
the rest of my life
quietly fading away
Games people play
you take it or you leave it
Things that they say
just dont make it right
If Im telling you
the truth right now
do you believe it
Games people play
in the middle of the night

Games people play
you take it or you leave it
Things that they say
honor brite
If I promise you
the moon and the stars
would you believe it
Games people play in
the middle of the night
Games people play
you take it or you leave it
Things that they say
just dont make it right
If Im telling you
the truth right now
do you believe it
Games people play
in the middle of the night

For my own part
I have never had a thought
Which I could not set down in words
With even more distinctness
Than that with which I conceived it

There is however a class of fancies
Of exquisite delicacy, which are not thoughts
And to which as yet I have found it
Absolutely impossible to adapt to language

These fancies arise in the soul
Alas how rarely, only at epochs
Of most intense tranquility
When the bodily and mental
Health are in perfection

And at those weird points of time
Where the confines of the waking world
Blend with the world of dreams
And so I captured this fancy
Where all that we see or seem
Is but a dream within a dream

The clock struck midnight
And through my sleeping
I heard a tapping at my door
I looked but nothing
lay in the darkness
And so I turned inside
once more
To my amazement
There stood a raven
Whose shadow hung above
my door
Then through the silence
It spoke that one word
That I shall hear
forever more

Nevermore

Thus quoth the raven
nevermore

And still the raven
remains in my room
No matter how much I implore
No words can soothe him
No prayer remove him
And I must hear forever more

Quoth the raven nevermore
Thus quoth the raven
Nevermore
quoth the raven
nevermore
Thus quoth the raven
nevermore
Nevermore Nevermore
Nevermore Never
Nevermore Nevermore
Never
Nevermore Nevermore
Never
Nevermore Nevermore
Nevermore Never
Nevermore Nevermore
Never
Nevermore Nevermore
Nevermore

You should have seen him
Lying alone in helpless silence in the night
You should have seen him
You would have seen his eye reflecting in the light

So for the old man
Ashes to ashes, earth to earth and dust to dust
No one will see me
No one with guilt to share, no secret soul to trust

And he won't be found at all
Not a trace to mark his fall
Nor a stain upon the wall

Louder and louder
Till I could tell the sound was not within my ears
You should have seen me
You would have seen my eyes grow white and cold with fear

Heard all the things in Heaven and Earth
I've seen many things in Hell
But his vulture's eye of a cold pale blue
Is the eye if the Devil himself

Take me away now
But let the silence drown the beating of his heart
I can't go on
Let me be free from wretched sea that I can not see
Please let me be free

By the last breath of the four winds that blow
I'll have revenge upon Fortunato
Smile in his face I'll say "come let us go
I've a cask of Amontillado"

Sheltered inside from the cold of the snow
Follow me now to the vault down below
Drinking the wine as we laugh at the time
Which is passing incredibly slow

(What are these chains binding my arms)
Part of you dies each passing day
(Say it's a game and I'll come to no harm)
You'll feel your life slipping away

You who are rich and whose troubles are few
May come around to see my point of view
What price the crown of a King on his throne
When you're chained in the dark all alone

(Spare me my life only name your reward)
Part of you dies each brick I lay
(Bring back some light in the name of the Lord)
You'll feel your mind slipping away

Just what you need to make you feel better
Just what you need to make you feel
Just what you need to make you feel better
Just what you need to make you feel
At the far end of your tether
And your thoughts won't fit together
So you sleep light or whatever
And the night goes on forever
The your mind change like the weather
Your in need of Doctor
Tarr and Professor Fether

Just what you need to make you feel better
Just what you need to make you feel
Just what you need to make you feel better
Just what you need to make you feel
Even clouds seem bright and breezy
'Cause the livin' is free and easy
See the rat race in a new way
Like you're walkin' up to a new day
It's a wise thing if you're clever
Take a lead from Doctor
Tarr and Professor Fether

Find the end of the rainbow
Fly wherever the winds blow
Laugh at life like a sideshow
Just what you need to make you feel better
Just what you need to make you feel better
Just what you need to make you feel
Just what you need to make you feel better
Just what you need to make you feel

Satisfaction altogether
Guaranteed by Doctor
Tarr and Professor Fether

Find the end of the rainbow
Fly wherever the winds blow
Laugh at life like a sideshow
Just what you need to make you feel better
Don't stop bringin' the girls round
Don't start havin' a showdown
Keep on handin' the jug round
All that you need is wine and good company

If I could see the sky above
And my mind could be set free
As wild white horses
reached the shore
I'd stand alone and oversee
And if the bush
before me burns
Should I turn my eyes away
And still the voices
I can hear
As clear to me
as light of day
I believed in my dreams
Nothing could change my mind
Nothing could change my mind
Now I know what they mean
How could I be so blind

Cold sands of time
Sounds that come in the night
Shall hide what is left of me
Come from Paradise
when no one cared
I've seen clouds
in empty skies
When one kind word meant
more to me
Than all the love in Paradise
I believed in my dreams
Nothing could change my mind
Nothing can save me
Nothing can save me
Nothing can save me now
'Til I found what they mean
Nothing can save me now

There's a voice on the phone
Who just called in to say
"Mr. Jones isn't home
He'll be gone for the day"

So he pulls down the blind
To adjust his disguise
But it's all in his mind
Which he proudly denies

I turn the boat back from the weir
Where to go from here
I can't hide from each face I see
Looking out from behind them is me

I'm attempting to guess
What they meant when they said
"Mr. Jones and his guest
Won't be using the bed"

So if I take the rap
While they stay out of sight
I can spring from the trap
When the timing is right

One minute I think I know what I mean
The next I hear voices inside disagree
Why are they laughing at me?

So I pick up the phone
Someone's asking of me
Is the real Mister Jones
Mister One, Two or Three?

So I say that they're not
But it's not as I say
'Cos they're all that I've got
And I can't get away

As Alice waves us through the glass
Are we home at last
For tomorrow they'll be here you see
Locked away safe inside there with me

'Cos tomorrow they'll be here you'll see
Locked away safe inside they're with me

One minute I think I know what I mean
The next I hear voices inside disagree
Why are they laughing at me?

It's no good believing in somebody else
If you can't believe in yourself
You give them the reason to take all the power and wealth
It's no good you trying to sit on the fence
And hope that the trouble will pass
'Cause sittin' on fences can make you a pain in the ass

If there's something you find to believe in
Then the message must get through
So don't just sit in silence
When you know what to do
Turn it up
Turn it up, make it louder
Turn it up
Turn it up, make it louder

There's no conversation if nobody speaks
And nothing gets done in the end
There's no confrontation when fantasy makes you its friend
So much injustice, too many lies
We don't have to look very far
But nothing will change if we leave things the way that they are

If there's something you find to believe in
Then the message must get through
So don't just sit in silence
When you know what to do
Turn it up
Turn it up, make it louder
Turn it up
Turn it up, make it louder
Ohh

[Inaudible]
[Inaudible]

If there's something you find to believe in
Then the message must get through
So don't just sit in silence
When you know what to do
Turn it up
Turn it up, make it louder
Turn it up
Turn it up, make it louder

Turn it up
(Turn it up)
(Turn it up)
Turn it up, make it louder
(Turn it up)
(Turn it up)
Turn it up
(Turn it up)
(Turn it up)
Turn, turn it up, make it louder
(Turn it up)
(Turn it up)

You can take me up, you can wind me down
There's no escape, but I'll never drown
No wires or strings, no rough and smooth
Just fire and stings, watch me closely, watch my every move
I can count your money while I check your hand
(Ooo ooo)
And you know I just can't lose

Wine from the water, gold from a tree
I wouldn't fool you, there's nothin' up my sleeve
Look for a mirror, there's nothin' there
I get rings out of nowhere, money from thin air

I can break these chains, while I'm upside down
Well, it may seem strange, I don't hit the ground
Now you see my hand is quicker than your eye
You should know by now, what you see here all of it's a lie
I can steal from your pocket when I shake your hand
Ooo ooo and I know you can't refuse

Wine from the water, gold from a tree
I wouldn't fool you, there's nothin' up my sleeve
Think of a number, I'll get it right
Throw me in the river, tie my hands up tight

I can wind you up, I can turn you 'round
No cunnin' stunt till the lady's found
No coils or springs, just nice and smooth
No knaves or kings, find the lady, watch my every move
I can count your money while I check your hand
Ooo ooo and you know I just can't lose

Wine from the water, gold from a tree
I wouldn't fool you, there's nothin' up my sleeve
Look for a mirror, no, nothin' there
I get rings out of nowhere, money from thin air

Wine from the water, gold from a tree
And I wouldn't fool you, there's nothin' up my sleeve
Think of a number, I'll get it right
Throw me in the river, tie my hands up tight

Wine from the water
(Oh, wine from the water)
Gold from a tree
(Good gold from a tree)
I wouldn't fool you, there's nothin' up my sleeve
(You know I wouldn't fool you)
(No no no no no)
Look for a mirror
(Look for a mirror)
There's nothin' there
(You know there's nothin' there)
I get rings out of nowhere
(Get the rings out of nowhere)
Money from thin air

He rocks in his chair like a shiny dime
But it's all for show, all for show.
Wearing your name and a number or two
When the minute's up so are you
But everybody knows, everybody knows.

Watching the hour from the light in his eyes,
He waits for your soul to come in from sky
But it's lost below, lost below.
Turning the wheel of your destiny round,
When the motion stops - no more sounds,
Does anybody care, anybody care.

Where's the man, where's the child
Wrapped together side by side.
Who can tell you what to do,
When Mr. Time has come for you.
See the truth, hear the lies,
Can there be no compromise
And who can tell you what they knew,
When Mr. Time has come for you.

Is it a feeling or deja vu?
When he points his finger calling you
Is it illusion? Just an illusion
Picking up seconds that fall to his feet
He blows them away as rocks on his seat,
Cool as his smile, his smile.

Where's the man, where's the child
Wrapped together side by side.
Who can tell you what to do,
When Mr. Time has come for you.
See the truth, hear the lies,
Can there be no compromise
And who can tell you what they knew,
When Mr. Time has come for you

(Lead vocal - Eric Woolfson)
Don't think sorry's easily said
Don't try turning tables instead
You've taken lots of Chances before
But I'm not gonna give anymore
Don't ask me
That's how it goes
Cause part of me knows what you're thinkin'

Don't say words you're gonna regret
Don't let the fire rush to your head
I've heard the accusation before
And I ain't gonna take any more
Believe me
The sun in your Eyes
Made some of the lies worth believing

Chorus:
I am the eye in the sky
Looking at you
I can read your mind
I am the maker of rules
Dealing with fools
I can cheat you blind
And I don't need to see any more
To know that
I can read your mind, I can read your mind

Don't leave false illusions behind
Don't Cry cause I ain't chnaging my mind
So find another fool like before
Cause I ain't gonna live anymore believing
Some of the lies while all of the Signs are deceiving

(chorus)

Don't think that
sorry's easily said
Don't try turning
tables instead
You've taken lots
of chances before
But I ain't gonna
give any more
Don't ask me
That's how it goes
'Cause part of me knows
what you're thinking
Don't say words you're
gonna regret
Don't let the fire
rush to your head
I've heard the
accusation before
And I ain't gonna
take any more
Believe me
The sun in your eyes
Made some of the lies
worth believing
I am the eye in the sky
Looking at you
I can read your mind
I am the maker of rules
Dealing with fools
I can cheat you blind
And I don't need to
see any more
To know that
I can read your mind
I can read your mind

I can read your mind
Don't leave false
illusions behind
Don't cry 'cause
I ain't changing my mind
So find another fool
like before
'Cause I ain't gonna
live anymore believing
Some of the lies while
all of the
signs are deceiving
I am the eye in the sky
Looking at you
I can read your mind
I am the maker of rules
Dealing with fools
I can cheat you blind
And I don't need to
see any more
To know that
I can read your mind
I can read your mind
I can read your mind
I can read your mind
I am the eye in the sky
Looking at you
I can read your mind
I am the maker of rules
Dealing with fools
I can cheat you blind
And I don't need to
see any more
To know that
I can read your mind
I can read your mind
I can read your mind
I can read your mind

Pay no attention to the writing on the wall
The words seem empty 'cause there's nothing there at all
We let the wise men beat the drums too soon
We were just children of the moon
No one to turn to, nowhere to run to even if we could

Too late to save us but try to understand
The seas were empty there was hunger in the land
We let the blind man lead the way too long
Easy to see where we went wrong
Nothing to live for, nothing to die for

We're lost in the middle of a hopeless world
Lost in the middle of a hopeless world
Children, children of the moon watch the world go by
Children, children of the moon are hiding from the sun and the sky

Children, children of the moon watch it all go by
Children, children of the moon are blinded by the light in their eyes
No one to turn to, nowhere to run to even if we could

Follow the pilgrim to the Temple of the Dawn
The altar's empty and the sacrifice is gone
We let the madmen write the golden rules
We were no more than mortal fools
Nothing to live for, nothing to die for

We're lost in the middle of a hopeless world
Lost in the middle of a hopeless world
Children, children of the moon watch the world go by
Children, children of the moon hiding from the sky
