It Started Out So Nice

It started out with butterflies

On a velvet afternoon

With flashing eyes and promises

Caught and held too soon

In a place called Ixea

With it's pumpkin oval moonIt started out so niceGenji taught Orion

Sea-purple harmony

While Kogi hid secrets into seashells

And even the ocean laughed

beneath that celestial canopyCuz it started out so niceWith the dust of stars they intermingled

Durock of Avon would only jingle

Marble money tunes

As pale earthly circles swoonedVolume left Bohemia, a triangle for his thumb

Questions fell but no one stopped to listen

That eternity was just a dawn away

And the rest was sure to come

Leaves, caught in winter's iceAbandoned circus grounds of flower captains

Prisms in a palm one way it happens

The air was silver calm

The softly met were slowly moving onThen all things in common suddenly grew strange

Now the Wurs were chasing other rainbows

Trying to find where the wind blows

To empty corners past dusty memoriesNow in the third millennium the crowded madness came

Crooked shadows roamed through the nights

The wizards overplayed their names

And after that the Wurs never bothered to have

Summer reasons... again,

but it started out so nice

it started out so niceWe started out so nice.
