Did someone call my name?

Like a distant drum, 

it's beating

Or is it just another dream

of long ago?

I dance again

I am spinning

In the life I am living

And I can feel the power

rushing through my vains



Once upon a time

I could do no wrong

Though the candle flickers

the flame is never gone

And to my brilliant feat

They all pay heed

I hear the crowds roar

Oh, so loudly



Is it a game of chance

or merely circumstances

A jack to a king and back

Then you have to pay to play

The world it won't wait for you

It's got some things to do

The sun's got to rise and drive another night away,

and as I listen to the silence

I can hear thunder in the distance



And to my brilliant feat

They all pay heed

I hear the crowds roar

Oh, so loudly



And to my brilliant feat

I make grown men weep

And still my eyes grow 

Oh, so cloudy



Heeeeeeeeeeeeeee-yah
