Текст пісні
Down the crooked alley past the sunken stone bazaar
Lies a little café with a drink that sees you far
The waitress wears a mask of lace her voice a violin
She says "Pick your potion darling Let the miracle begin"
Steam curls like serpents from teacups of time
Spoons that whisper riddles sugar turns to lime
The mirror on the wall starts to hum in C
And I see a version of me that's not quite me
Welcome to the Alchemy Café
Where moons melt in your café au lait
Sip the storm stir the sky
The clock runs backward if you dare to try
Oh reality's thin on a velvet tray
Here in the Alchemy Café
A man with feathers offers jam made of rain
While the floor folds in like a paper crane
She brings me "Forget-Me-Not Chai" on a tray
And suddenly everyone knows my name
Outside the sky turns paisley grey
And gravity waltzes the cups away
"What's in the brew?"
"The question's not whatbut who"
Welcome to the Alchemy Café
Where fate comes frothing in your Earl Grey
Careful what you sip what you say
The walls might echo it all the way
Truth dissolves like sugarcane clay
Here in the Alchemy Café
She leans in close with a crystalline eye
And whispers secrets I still can't deny
"Not all magic is meant to save
Some is brewed to misbehave"
I saw my soul in a demitasse cup
It smiled at me then drank me up
Welcome to the Alchemy Café
Where night wears sequins and shadows play
Leave your logic by the door
It won't serve you here anymore
The stars toast madness in cabernet
Here in the Alchemy Café
