Ever heard the Yes cover of it?



Speaking of Yes. Ya, lyrics are sometimes pretty ****ing integral to the song.

A seasoned witch could call you from the depths of your disgrace
And rearrange your liver to the solid mental grace
And achieve it all with music that came quickly from afar
And taste the fruit of man recorded losing all against the hour
And assessing points to nowhere, leading every single one
A dewdrop can exalt us like the music of the sun
And take away the plain in which we move
And choose the course you're running

This version's pretty good too.
