Answer: Haze

"Well I loved a million women in a belladonic haze.
And I ate a million dinners brought to me on silver trays.
Give me everything I need to feed my body and my soul.
Well, I'll grow a little bigger, maybe that can be my goal.
I was told a million times of all the people in my way.
How I had to keep on trying and get better every day.
But if I crossed a million rivers and I road a million miles,
then I'd still be where I started, same as when I started.
Keep yourself alive, c'mon, keep yourself alive,
take you all your time and money, honey you'll survive."
(words and music by Brian May)

I already used this most excellent tune in a recent "Mystery Word" quiz, so I couldn't use it again in this one. My bad.
