The fortune that fell on the favour that opened the door
Was it the same as the pieces you found on the floor
Was all that it seemed
Was it all that you thought it would be
I'm not sure
The light that shone on the sign that showed you the way
The fire that flickered and burned and taught you to play
When will it open your eyes
To the fact that it'll be no surprise
We're still here
Will you be my hope again tonight
Will you take my hand
Will you be my friend and alibi
Though I ask it' not the first time
The alchemist asked all the questions that queried the path
Whilst the idiot rolled out the carpet and started to laugh
Nobody seemed to know
If he knew where he wanted to go
But off he went
