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 moon It started out so nice Genji taught Orion Sea-purple harmony While Kogi hit secrets into seashells And even the ocean laughed Beneath that celestial canopy Cuz it started out so nice With the dust of stars they intermingled Durock of Avon would only jingle Marble money tunes As pale earthly circles swooned Volume 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 ice Abandoned circus grounds of flower captains Prisms in a palm one way it happens The air was silver calm The softly met were slowly moving on Then 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 memories Now 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 nice We started out so nice
