So many things I think about
When I look far away
Things I know, things I wonder
Things I'd like to say
The more we think we know about
The greater the unknown
We suspend our disbelief
And we are not alone

Mystic rhythms capture my thoughts 
Carry them away 
Mysteries of night escape the light of day 
Mystic rhythms under northern lights 
Oh, the African sun
Primitive things stir the hearts of everyone 

We sometimes catch a window
A glimpse of what's beyond
Was it just imagination
Stringing us along?
More things than are dreamed about
Unseen and unexplained
We suspend our disbelief
We are entertained 

Mystic rhythms capture my thoughts 
Carry them away 
Nature seems to spin 
A supernatural way 
Mystic rhythms under city lights 
Or a canopy of stars 
We feel the powers 
And we wonder what they are

(Oh oh oh)

Mystic rhythms capture my thoughts 
Carry them away 
Mysteries of night escape the light of day 
Mystic rhythms under northern lights 
Or a canopy of stars 
We feel the push and pull 
Of restless rhythms from afar

Rush

Rush is a Canadian rock band formed in August 1968, in the Willowdale neighbourhood of Toronto, Ontario. The band is composed of bassist, keyboardist, and lead vocalist Geddy Lee, guitarist and backing vocalist Alex Lifeson, and drummer, percussionist and lyricist Neil Peart. The band and its membership went through a number of re-configurations between 1968 and 1974, achieving their iconic lineup when Peart replaced original drummer John Rutsey in July 1974, two weeks before the group's first United States tour. Rutsey's departure stemmed primarily from health concerns regarding his diabetes. In 2015 the band played their final show due to Peart's declining health. more »
