Verse 1
G Em C D
Well, first I have to tell you that I’m not in-sane,
Am Em/B Em
And that once I was a famous arche-ologist name,

And then I stopped... looked... and then I was hooked!
Chorus

I saw a flash, then a sparkle from a moonstone,

Then the mist started... started to clear----,

I saw a face, a face in the moon -stone,

Then it started to disap-pear!
Verse 2
G Em C D
Well, I walked, and walked, and never talked for many days,
Am Em/B Em
And without a friend the desert is a lonely place,

I was just about to turn around, and make way home,
Am Em/B Em
When something told me that I had to see it a-gain,
G D C D
And then I stopped... looked... and then I was hooked!
Chorus

Then it started to disap-pear!
