Appear before me
Through my mystic window
And soon to be seen
I saw presented
Became a vision that
I saw resented
I stood and watched
Its image changing
The unseen hand was rearranging
And all the time I wondered
How did it wind
Slowly, surely it unfolded
Its simple lines just as
A pole wind told it
A temporary revolution
My problems rose and fell
With a lapse of illusion
My mind was telling me, don't fight it
It's just a hazard in the night
Don't do those
Who've lost their way
It's a masquerade
Masquerade, it's a masquerade ...
A masquerade of dancing shadows Appear before me Through my mystic window And soon to be seen I saw presented Became a vision that I saw resented I stood and watched Its image changing The unseen hand was rearranging And all the time I wondered How did it wind Slowly, surely it unfolded Its simple lines just as A pole wind told it A temporary revolution My problems rose and fell With a lapse of illusion My mind was telling me, don't fight it It's just a hazard in the night Don't do those Who've lost their way It's a masquerade Masquerade, it's a masquerade ...
