In a cold winter night I had a vision
E
Taking me by my hand
B
Leading me to the door
C#m
To rescue me from the wastelands
G#m A
The glance of the shining ivories

Out of sound, out of reason

The voice of their laughter was gone

Taken away, time for a change
B
I'm walking over
C#m A
Flying away, flying away
E
Dying into another world
B
Pure and divine
C#m
And the laughter dies
