Happy Birthday to magician Happy Birthday to you ... riff 1 Then at the dead of midnight As we watched the dancing firelight The air grew cold And seemed to dull the flame The fire died The music faded Filled with fear of death we waited For now we knew Some evil was to blame riff 7 x2 solo Riff 8 I challenge you I challenge you all For all you own And all you know And by all the powers of darkness I will steal what is mine Surrender now or face my spite I grant you it may be Friday night But did you know this day Also numbers thirteen First I'll give you fire I turn your fire into a sleepy stream Yes, now I give you nightmares From your horror I'll create a dream You cannot fight me For I have the sword of hate But one thing you can't see My answer is simply An impenetrable fortress Of love ... love ... love ... riff 9 The fear went as quickly as it came The air was clear The fire burned again The flames leapt The organ played The swans sang To greet the day And then we knew that Riff 10 Love will find love will find love ..
