<p dir="auto">I want to be a Winner,</p>
<p dir="auto">But "Seasons' End" is all I can say,</p>
<p dir="auto">I'm only half-way to my prize,</p>
<p dir="auto">so near...yet so far away...</p>
<p dir="auto">I long for that cup to be my cup,</p>
<p dir="auto">but just when I thought it may,</p>
<p dir="auto">You bring out that Christmas surprise,</p>
<p dir="auto">so near...yet so far away...</p>
<p dir="auto">Being on Level Three was a pleasure (pleas-ure)</p>
<p dir="auto">But it was taken all away</p>
<p dir="auto">I came so close to my quest's treasure, (trea-sure)</p>
<p dir="auto">That my hands were forbidden to touch...</p>
<p dir="auto">The Cup that Heals was not claimed, I tell thee</p>
<p dir="auto">And that's how it is going to stay,</p>

<p dir="auto">so near...yet so far away...</p>
<p dir="auto">...so near...yet so far away...</p>
<p dir="auto">...so near...yet so far away...</p>
<p dir="auto">...so near...yet so far away...</p>
