Tricks of the Light Songtext
von Mike Oldfield

I′m half a crazy man
Waiting for confirmation
Signs keep a changing and
I need some more information

Some tricks of the light
You'll never know
Make a flickering midnight light
Into a glow

It′s a trick of the light
It's a trick of the light

Something and tells me how
Her bright blue eyes are smiling
She turns her head now
Will she, won't she deny him

Some tricks of the light
You′ll never know
Make a flickering midnight light
Turn into a glow


And the spark you saw so bright
Was just for show
Could it ever have turned out right
You′ll never know

It's a trick of the light
It′s a trick of the light

She turns, she takes his hand
Breaking his concentration
She burns at his command
Makes some transfiguration

Some tricks of the light
You'll never know
Make a flickering midnight light
Turn into a glow

And the spark you saw so bright
Was just for show
Could it ever have turned out right
You′ll never know

It's a trick of the light
It′s a trick of the light


Could it ever have turned out right now
It's a trick of the light
That is something you'll never know
It′s a trick of the light

Could it ever have turned out right now
It′s a trick of the light
That is something you'll never know
It′s a trick of the light

Could it ever have turned out right now
It's a trick of the light
That is something you′ll never know
It's a trick of the light

That is something you′ll never
Something you'll never, something you'll never
Something you′ll never, something you′ll never
Something you'll never, something you′ll never
Something you'll never, something you′ll never
