Alchemy

(album: Fool - 2019)

Red velvet curtains
Open noiselessy
Lovers and children
Strain their necks to see
A figure in the dark
Now almost revealed
A swirl of velvet cloak
And now he's disappeared

Alchemy

Close up on the lips
Shiny shiny red
Whispering
What was that she said?
A lightning flash
A sudden silhouette
"Who's there?" "A friend"
A glowing cigarette

Alchemy

Thrill to secrets never told
Taste the bitter turned to sweet
See the dross turned into gold
Hear a B sharp turned to C

Beautiful dancers
Fly into the air
Enchanted by a melody
That isn't really there
The savage beast
Has turned into a man
The curtains close
To open on command

Alchemy
