Lyrics

One simple motion - that turns it on - oh magic lantern
it fills the air - with sweet communion - it takes me there
& oh magic lantern - dirty spirits - you've awakened
they see the light - you breathe upon them - before the fall

In blind dark tunnels - we need the night light - oh magic lantern
this kind of darkness - does taste of sugar - & smells of the rain
& oh magic lantern - you guide the seekers - you warm the keepers
you kill the creepers - but still they follow - your threadbare sun

Your wick of velvet - it burns eternal - it never dies out
Oil of nectar - it's always summer - sweet butterfly
oh magic lantern - turn up convection - & breath upon me
I kissed the sky - it opened up there - now prudence smiles
