The moon hangs low
over everything you believe you saw
Under broken clouds
runs a Yeti-track
500 miles in the snow
A UFO over the lake
and in a flash of lightning I see
Keats standing beside Baudelaire
Like magic, a light you drown in
There are small tricks that get people
to give you more than you are worth
Mary Shelley's dream
sews a zig-zag seam
over everything the winter hid
over everything the heart forgot
500 miles in the snow
A UFO over the lake
and in a flash of lightning dances
Lady Day a waltz with Astaire
Like magic, a light you drown in
There are small tricks that get people
to give you more than you are worth
500 miles in the snow
A UFO over the lake
and with a look I make people believe
in magic, a light you drown in
There are small tricks that get people
to give you more than you are worth
