Oh, is it sleight of hand? Or is it really magic? Is your life work of art? Or is it truly tragic? Can you see the truth? Can you get yourself to Heaven? Can you be there all the time? 24 by 7? Laid out before you everyday is a myriad of traps. As you meander through the maze, Try very hard, try very hard, try very, very hard not to collapse. Into the mire of tangled, twisted tentacles, that are attempting to take you away. Are you just a lump of flesh? Or a sacred tongue of fire? The truth is the truth, for the devil is a liar! Can you feel the difference burning in your heart? When they come to take you down, that's exactly where they start! Laid out before you, everyday, is a myriad of traps, and as you try to find your way, it's a lonely road, it's a winding road, it's a heavy, heavy, heavy load, perhaps. But the world just keeps turning around, and we get closer, everyday. If I was a stranger would you give me the time? If I was a drowning man, would you throw me a line? Would you fight for your life if those were the stakes? If we are going to save ourselves, that might be what it takes! Silver and gold might be very nice, but there are much more precious things to set in your sites. Everything is changing, it's the time of your life. The mystery is in the wind, and it's blowing tonight! LaiLaiLai LaiLaiLai LaiLaiLai Lai! LaiLaiLaiLaiLaiLaiLaiLaiLaiLaiLai Lai! LaiLaiLaiLaiLaiLaiLaiLaiLaiLai! LaiLaiLaiLaiLaiLaiLaiLaiLaiLaiLai! And I know I should confess to you my heart's desire. Oh, but deep down inside, I know, that you already know. So I'm down on my knees, I fall down and pray, and ask for understanding, how something can be so close, and yet, so far away...for this I pray... Oh! Is it sleight of hand? Or is it really magic? Can you do a loop-de-do? Can you trip the light fantastic? Can you see the colors with your naked eye? Do you dare to live your dreams? Won't you even try? Laid out before you everyday is a myriad of traps! Are you a king? Are you a slave? For you must be very brave, to withstand the crashing waves, that confront us on this trip we take from the cradle to the grave. And everyone has the key in their hand, but when you get to the door, will you understand? If I was a stranger would you give me the time? If I was a drowning man, would you throw me a line? Would you fight for your life if those were the stakes? If we are going to save ourselves, that might be what it takes! Silver and gold might be very nice, but there are there are much more precious things to set in your sites. Everything is changing, it's the time of your life. The mystery is in the wind, and it's blowing tonight! LaiLaiLai LaiLaiLai LaiLaiLai Lai! LaiLaiLaiLaiLaiLaiLaiLaiLaiLaiLaiLai! LaiLaiLaiLaiLaiLaiLaiLaiLai Lai!  The mystery is in the wind and it's blowing tonight!
