There was a little place in a pretty row
Where we mostly did not go
And next to that place was a field of trees
Were stones were stacked on stones were stacked on stones for ten centuries
Near that place in the middle of the night
An old god shambled beneath the sodium light
And the whole town gathered at the fence
With looks on their faces worse than grief itself
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
And across the street a girl with long dark hair
She knelt among the stones and the mystical flare
And the old god drew her into him like a flame
I never seen you so beautiful as that again
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Touched by the spirit, touched by the flame
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Touched by the spirit, touched by the flame
I never ever saw you so beautiful as that again
You're beautiful (touched by spirit), you're beautiful, you're beautiful (touched by the flame)
I never ever saw you so beautiful as that again
You're beautiful (touched by spirit), you're beautiful, you're beautiful (touched by the flame)
You're beautiful, you're beautiful, again
You're beautiful, you're beautiful (touched by spirit)
You're beautiful, you're beautiful (touched by the flame)
You're beautiful, you're beautiful, you're beautiful, you're beautiful
You're beautiful, you're beautiful (touched by the flame)
I was touched by the flame
I never ever seen you so beautiful as that again
You're beautiful (touched by spirit), you're beautiful, I was touched by the flame
You're beautiful, you're beautiful, you're beautiful, you're beautiful (touched by the flame)
You're beautiful, you're beautiful (touched by the flame), you're beautiful

You're beautiful, you're beautiful (touched by spirit)
You're beautifu, you're beautiful (touched by the flame)
