Lyrics Ayreon – Amazing Flight

There is danger ahead.
But do not be afraid.
For I am with you like breath itself.
Darkness will lead to light — colour will bleed into the night.

A. AMAZING FLIGHT IN SPACE

barbarian
I’m lookin’ ’round bewildered
is this some dark and evil jest?
what brought me to this cursed keep
perchance some crazy quest
god forbid I am no coward!
pitted against monster, man or ghost,
I’d wield my blade with crimson gusto
for I’m the proud barbarian host!

hippie (chorus:)
hey dude, you’re so uncool
but hey, that’s allright
like there’s no need to get uptight
my eyes reflect the stars
and a smile lights up my face
we’re on an amazing flight in space

barbarian
I shook city, walls and towers
wreaking havoc in the streets
burned palaces of cow’rdly kings

hippie (chorus)

barbarian
I load my black stallion
With grim determination
I found a kingdom
Where I chose to settle down
Righteous men would hang me
But I’ve given hell to pay
Cause nothing is as dangerous
As a barbarian warlord
