change the copper into gold

change the copper into gold

make me what i am not now

there is a secret

i should know

i'd find it but i don't know how

well i got so much inside

i give it till there's nothing left

and the evil one must die

so i can see it through your eyes

i long to see the snow white falcon as it takes its flight

far beyond the mountains of love

watch the smiths in the village of a thousand dreams untold

change the copper into gold

change the copper into gold

abide forever here inside of me

teach me all that i should know

release the powers of alchemy

fire and water cannot dwell

eternally within this mortal shell

i see the falcon far away

it's calling me to come and fly away

i long to cross the valley of ether

hear the songs they sing

see the master's work unfold

watch the smiths in the village of a thousand dreams untold

change the copper into gold
