Eyes Of Nostradamus

Manfred Mann

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...
