The strangest thing happened to me
On my way home
Upon the road was the biggest thing
I'd ever seen
A flying ship from the heavens
White as a bone
And I said to myself
This can't be happening to me.

There goes around and round the solution
How can I afford to let you go?
The changes are there-
They're everywhere now
The thought of having them
Turns me on fire
Give me

Wings, wings of desire
Oh oh wings, wings of desire
Wings, the things I desire

Soons enough came a silhouette
Out of the light
And spoke to me in a tone
Which I could not discern
Then he turned and walked away
Right out of sight
And where he's going is
None of my concern

Ten to one that I never see
My friend again
And if I do it will be
On my worldly end
And to this day I still recall
What he gave to me
The power of desire
To be the best that I could be
