| [al:From Reality] | |
| [00:19.82] | It started out with butterflies On a velvet afternoon |
| [00:26.47] | With flashing eyes and promises |
| [00:30.09] | Caught and held too soon |
| [00:33.90] | In a place called Ixea |
| [00:36.27] | With it's pumpkin oval moon |
| [00:40.92] | It started out so nice |
| [00:48.34] | Genji taught Orion |
| [00:50.83] | Sea-purple harmony |
| [00:55.43] | While Kogi hit secrets into seashells |
| [01:02.42] | And even the ocean laughed |
| [01:04.95] | beneath that celestial canopy |
| [01:08.50] | Cuz it started out so nice |
| [01:20.10] | With the dust of stars they intermingled |
| [01:23.77] | Durock of Avon would only jingle |
| [01:27.59] | Marble money tunes |
| [01:30.80] | As pale earthly circles swooned |
| [01:41.86] | Volume left Bohemia, a triangle for his thumb |
| [01:48.85] | Questions fell but no one stopped to listen |
| [01:55.81] | That eternity was just a dawn away |
| [01:58.53] | And the rest was sure to come |
| [02:02.17] | Leaves, caught in winter's ice |
| [02:13.34] | Abandoned circus grounds of flower captains |
| [02:16.94] | Prisms in a palm one way it happens |
| [02:20.95] | The air was silver calm |
| [02:23.94] | The softly met were slowly moving on |
| [02:35.16] | Then all things in common suddenly grew strange |
| [02:47.05] | Now the Wurs were chasing other rainbows |
| [02:50.47] | Trying to find where the wind blows |
| [02:54.50] | To empty corners past dusty memories |
| [03:08.72] | Now in the third millennium the crowded madness came |
| [03:15.64] | Crooked shadows roamed through the nights |
| [03:18.59] | The wizards overplayed their names |
| [03:22.96] | And after that the Wurs never bothered to have |
| [03:25.63] | Summer reasons... again, |
| [03:29.25] | but it started out so nice |
| [03:36.52] | it started out so nice |
| [03:43.63] | We started out so nice. |
