The return of the thin white duke, throwing darts in lovers eyes

Here are we, one magical moment such is the stuff from where dreams are woven

Bending sound, dredging the ocean lost in my circle

Here am I, flashing no colour, tall in this room, overlooking the ocean

Here are we, one magical movement from Kether to Malkuth

There are you, drive like a demon from station to station

Once there were mountains and mountains

And once there were sunbirds to soar with

Wonder who, wonder who, wonder when
G F#m F C D | E A E F#m|
Have you sought fortune, evasive and shy
G F#m F C D | E A E F#m|
Drink to the men who protect you and I
G F#m F C D | E A E F#m | G
Drink, drink, drain your glass, raise your glass high

Does my face show some kind of glow?

It's too late - to be hateful
