Manfred Mann's Earth Band - Eyes of Nostradamus lyrics

At night… At night… At night – they will think they have seen the sun When they see the mad half-pig man At night – screams, battles seen fought in the sky And beasts will be heard to speak Man, man your time is sand Your ways are leaves upon the sea I am the eyes of Nostradamus All your ways are known to me Think upon it – all of you who may read this verse Listen and listen well Think upon it – barbarians, idiots and fools stay far away Man, man your time is sand Your ways are leaves upon the sea I am the eyes of Nostradamus All your ways are known to me Oh, I had a dream I thought I was alone And the veil of all the years Fell from my eyes like a stone From the ground – the seven year child And a fire will come to the earth From the sky – at forty-five degrees And the stone will crack with the force Man, man your time is sand Your ways are leaves upon the sea I am the eyes of Nostradamus All your ways are known to me Oh, I had a dream I thought I was alone And the veil of all the years Fell from my eyes like a stone At night… at night… Think upon it… think upon it… At night… at night… Think upon it… think upon it…
