Man Of Spells lyrics

Artist Tony Banks
Album(s) The Fugitive

Lyrics

In shadowy holes, the light disappears
Evening is with us now
And all around begins the movement
The many creatures of the night prepare

Undisturbed by the sound, with noiseless tread
A figure comes into view
A trail of magic runs behind him
The man of spells has come to visit you
He knows how much you really want him
He knows just what you all want him to do

Drawn back cloak revealing
Wraith-like form concealing
Half-seen eyes unseeing
Half-heard words beseeching
Help me as I helped you
Help me now I need you

The enchantment is gone, the ghost disappears
Leaving just a tired old man
In restless dreams we might have changed him
But a wanderer's all he'll ever be
With shuffling feet he turns and is gone
Back to his open home
A trail of ashes runs behind him
The man of magic has retired tonight
He knows how much you really want him
He knows just what you wanted him to do
He knows how much you really want him
He knows just what you wanted him to do..
