Moonstone Lyrics - The View From The Top - Cat Stevens

Well, first I have to tell you that I'm not insane 

And that once I was a famous archaeologist named 

In a recent expedition in a distant land. 

I just happened to be passing my hand in the sand 

And then I stopped, looked, and then I was hooked. 

I saw a flash, then a sparkle from a moonstone, 

Then the mist started, started to clear. 

I saw a face, a face in the moonstone, 

And then it started to disappear

Well, I walked and walked and never talked 

For many days, 

And without a friend a desert is a lonely place. 

I was just about to turn around and make way home 

When something told me that I had to see it again. 

And then I stopped, looked, and then I was hooked. 

I saw a flash, then a sparkle from a moonstone, 

Then the mist started, started to clear. 

I saw a face, a face in the moonstone, 

And then it started to disappear. 

A vu ray, a vu ray. 

A vu ray.

I saw a flash, then a sparkle from a moonstone 

Then the mist started, started to clear 

I saw a face, a face in the moonstone 

And then it started to disappear, 

And then it started to disappear, 

And then it started to disappear.
