Kayak - Celestial Science lyrics

(Nostradamus) I was born in the town of St. Remy Raised at my grandfather's side Who would teach me Latin, Hebrew, Chemistry No question was ever denied I was told about the circle of life Hearing how my ancestors managed to survive All about the wonders of astrology When I was a boy Spending nights reading books On the heavens and the earth Then finding out, discovering The power of words Only time could separate our souls and their secret alliance Celestial science On matters that would really interest me I received a pretty good start Much to the concern of some friends and family Who felt I was tryin' just a little too hard Though my education wasn't useless or wrong But to learn a proper job I was sent to Avignon Far away from prying eyes in St. Remy Where I was a boy Just spending nights reading books On the heavens and the earth Then finding out, discovering The power of words Only time could separate our souls and their secret alliance Celestial science I remember spending nights and reading books On the heavens and the earth Then finding out, discovering The power of words Only time could separate our souls and their secret alliance Celestial science
