Lyrics The Sight - Kayak

The Sight

They say that I can read the future in the lines of your hand
When there s darkness all around, they say that I can understand
Normal eyes don t see
So you can t help feeling this jealousy
I seem to know the stars and stories that they whisper in my ear
They can t see through the mist of time, but to me it s crystal clear
You will never know
Cause your fantasy won t show
And if it did I know you really couldn t bear
The sight
Does anybody care to listen to what I ve got to say
Or do you think it really doesn t matter anyway
People look at me
Waiting for my good advice and wondering what I can see
Will their luck change for the good or will they end in ruined state
Giving a million if they only could find peace by knowing their fate
I m telling wicked lies
Like a devil in disguise
If I would not I don t believe they ll stand
The night
Without me the fair wouldn t be the same
So I tell them what they d like to hear
It s part of their dreams and my crazy game
It s fun to play
The more they pay
To me your life is an open book
It s written in the cosmical signs
Oh how I wish someone could take a look
At that silly ball
To tell me all
About mine
Oh, tell me all, tell me all about mine
