Slightly different tempo, but lyrics are very similar?
Unfortunately no... someone will post the right one, I'm quite confident, then you'll see what I meant about the significant of the organ part. but I realize this is not eazy... Thanks

I love this sort of challenge mate, I'll have a good research this evening 👍
Try the people who put Heart 70s radio out. They seem to have a wide range of stuff they are playing. Somebody there must be having the time of their lives researching songs to put in their playlists so might have come across the song you are searching for or something similar. To me your effort sounds somewhere between pinball wizard and that Richard Harris song
Sounds a bit like the Nice, but as others have said, van der graph generator or curved air also possible. There was also a band called Egg who were organ led (Dave Stewart on organ). Also another ‘Canterbury scene’ band Caravan possibly? The first 25 seconds of your Sound Cloud thing sounded naggingly familiar though.
I thought it would be Focus from Lenny’s description. The opening bars of his version made me think this even more. Sadly, I can’t offer anything more helpful.
Also sounds a bit like the start of Child in Time by Deep Puple
Exactly what I thought...but figured the OP would have surely noted and mentioned, in memory, the high pitch wailing/singing which is so prominent on the track. He doesn't so that threw me off.
Just listened to both Deep purple and Julie Driscoll, both great blasts from the past, we are in the right era but not there yet. I am confident that my memory of the tune is pretty spot on so when someone comes across the right song, they will have no doubt they got it right. Maybe I should tart it up, release it, and wait to be sued....💪🕺🕺
Thought of The Nice and Greenslade but neither seem to fit. Israel had its own prog rock musicians of which I know very little. The German band Can may be a possibility from that era.

Can assure you it is not Israeli...the German direction is interesting.
I have played it to a couple of my prog fan mates and drawn a blank, although they are confident it is not Focus, ELP or Yes. I don't think it is Jethro Tull as I have most of their albums. Might be from A Passion Play, but would have expected to hear a flute at some point. It does sound like what little I have heard of Van der Graff Generator, but I am not really familiar with their work. That organ riff at the beginning is so familiar, but maybe I recognise it from another song. (It's not unlike Sunset by Roxy Music, although it's obviously not that) It;s gonna keep me awake tonight unless somebody nails it soon

Great investigating work. I know nothing about Van der Graff, will look (him? Or is it a band name..?) Up. My hunch is that it is either European, or very theatrical dramatic, Roxy music type (but earlier) this song stayed in my head because of the dreamy drama it invoked. It is especially effective when not knowing the language frees you to constract your own scene. I hate understanding music.

Yep, pretty sure reddit would solve this in five minutes.
In their version of 'You Keep Me Hanging On' their is a rift that is similar to a rift in your link but obviously not same song.
(or whatever it’s called).

Tangerine Dream
Camel
Wishbone Ash
Uriah Heap (more rock based but used Hammond organ a lot)
I can't find it so giving up. Currently watching Ozarks
I really did and unsurprisingly it says no result.

What a great tune 👋👋
But not the one...
