Lyrics as deciphered by Michael Poloukhine
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[I looked at John and Mary] {I think its something else, but this
seems to be accepted}
Before the journey had just begun
I saw a light shining bright
[Brighter than the sun] {drums; I can't hear a word}
[And we started to fall around ???] {guessing}
All around began to fade
Then he looked and found himself
[???]
Hey! what was that, long ago?
[going?][out of?] nowhere {?}
[???] {this sounds like a tape skip missed a line}
[???]
<The first crescendo...
then down to bass
then Lilith bit>
[When I told our friend come on by today] {cant
be sure thats it}
[It provides ???] your tears away.
Now you see him from day to day
Looking for the light
[Somehow bring when you ???]... {?}
You can [???] you have got it made
Remember, John, Mary werent afraid
When they saw the light
Hey, what was that, long ago?
Out of nowhere
Ah! {?}...
<the second crescendo... and a bridge>
[Long time ago ???] or [Poor ???]
[Long time ago ???] or [Every time ???]
[???]
[???]
<the part with the 'falsetto' sound]
[Lost in a ???]
[There I am] like a bloom {or bird?}
Calling you like a butterfly
All around the people will stare
[Stare, stare
???] {More yelling, can't make it out.}
<Lilith bit again>
So I went on a [???] {or same as before?}
[It provides ???] your tears away.
Now you see him from day to day
Looking for the light
Hey, what was that, long ago?
Out of nowhere {not completely sure}
Ahh! [???]
<Guitars and instrumental part with fast arpeggios
and eventually flute and bass>
Aaaaah... aaaah... aaaah...
<along with Raven arpeggious>
<Bass Lilith parts again; then back to the song>
[???] our friends [when you ???]... {?}
You can see [???] you have got it made
Remember, John n Mary werent afraid
When they saw the light
[Slow bass]
Like a bird
On a [???]
Like a butterfly
All around the people will share {or stare?}
[share... share...] {or stare?}
