Lyrics

Red velvet curtains
 Open noiselessly
 Lovers and children
 Strain their necks to see
 A figure in the dark
 Now almost revealed
 A swirl of velvet cloak
 And now he's disappeared
 Alchemy
 Close up on the lips
 Shiny shiny red
 Whispering
 What was that she said?
 A lightning flash
 A sudden silhouette
 "Who's there?", a friend
 A glowing cigarette
 Alchemy
 Thrill to secrets never told
 Taste the bitter turned to sweet
 See the dross turned into gold
 Hear A B sharp turned to C
 Beautiful dancers
 Fly into the air
 Enchanted by a melody
 That isn't really there
 The savage beast
 Has turned into a man
 The curtains close
 To open on command
 Alchemy
