All kinds of creatures that hide in the light Come in the night, when it is dark they are alive First an idea then they are here born of your mind Manticores, elves, centaurs, and fairies of spite, sylphids, mermen, and unicorns, dragons and sprites Whatever you can imagine may give life to your nights All kinds of creatures that hide in your mind Come in the night, dance in your world in the moonlight First an idea, then they are here they come to life Werewolves and dragonfish, monsters and rocs pegasus and shadowshapes, and phoenixes and toads Whatever you can think of may be part of your ghosts They hide in the gloom, they pretend, they're not real Yet their mystery's there to revealwhat you feel intangible like wind, you can hear what they sing lucid like lyrics, strange visions they bring insatiable like fire, consuming your eve till the witch of the morning tells them to leave Noone knows where they go then, which fortunes they weave before you must arouse them, only you set them free All kinds of creatures, invisible sights Come in the night,, ride on your mind, unfold their might First an idea, then they are here see what you find |
