Classic Theme Tune Lyrics: Ace of Wands

Posted by By Alastair James April 18, 2021 Features

Original Air Dates: 1970 – 1972 (ITV-1)

Jet white dove. Snow black snake. Time has turned his face.
From the edge of mystery where running is no race.

Ageless night. Careless day. Fate reaches out a hand
To touch the edge of destiny. A story with no end.

Chorus
Tarot cards – Tarot the diamond man.
Tarot guards wherever he can.
Tarot cards. Tarot the diamond man.
Tarot guards with mystic hands.

Falcon sun. Leopard moon. Minds searching for tomorrow.
Take what you can from yesterday. The rest beg – steal – or borrow.

Iron roads. Asphalt sky. Windows made from water.
Son of secrets – mystery’s child, ruler of eight quarters.
Chorus

Velvet roofs. Tattooed streets. Patterns made from words.
Laughter echoes in the dark life hovers like a bird.
Chorus

Ace of Wands theme tune written by Andrew Bown and Trevor Preston and performed by Bown.
