Amazing Flight

Lyrics

[Spoken Intro: Forever of the Stars (Peter Daltrey)] There is danger ahead. But do not be afraid. For I am with you like breath itself. Darkness will lead to light, colour will bleed into the night, beautiful colours, the like of which you have never seen. Let the dream of confusion lead you into the virgin light! Be gone, be all-seeing, be brave! (Be gone!) [I. Amazing Flight in Space] [Verse 1: Barbarian (Jay van Feggelen)] I'm looking 'round bewildered Is this some dark and evil jest? What brought me to this cursed keep? Perchance some crazy quest? Gods forbid I am no coward! Pitted against a monster, man, or ghost I'd wield my blade with crimson gusto For I am the proud barbarian host! [Chorus: Hippie (Arjen Anthony Lucassen)] Hey dude, you're so uncool! But hey, that's alright... Like, there's no need to get uptight My eyes reflect the stars And a smile lights up my face We're on an amazing flight in space! [Synthesizer Solo] [Verse 2: Barbarian (Jay van Feggelen)] I shook city walls and towers! Wreaking havoc in the streets Burned palaces of cowardly kings Not a one stood up to me, fools Bear bloody banners in blazing skies! Brandish battle axe and broadsword! Let drums of glory sound like thunder! Hail, barbaric warlord! [Chorus: Hippie (Arjen Anthony Lucassen)] Hey dude, you're so uncool! But hey, that's alright... Like, there's no need to get uptight My eyes reflect the stars And a smile lights up my face We're on an amazing flight in space! [Organ Solo] [Guitar Solo] [Bridge: Barbarian (Jay van Feggelen)] I load my black stallion With grim determination I found a kingdom Where I chose to settle down Righteous men would hang me But I've given hell to pay 'Cause nothing is as dangerous As a barbarian at bay I trained some of the minstrel men I laid this place appears For a barbarian warlord... [II. Stardance] [Indian (Sharon den Adel)] (Chants) [III. Flying Colours] [instrumental]
