Lyrics

[05:01.76] 'To seek the sacred river Alph
[05:05.57] To walk the caves of ice
[05:09.31] To break my fast on honeydew
[05:13.22] And drink the milk of Paradise...'
[05:23.87] I had heard the whispered tales of immortality
[05:29.35] The deepest mystery
[05:32.70] From an ancient book I took a clue
[05:37.35] I scaled the frozen mountain tops of eastern lands unknown
[05:43.10] Time and Man alone
[05:46.39] Searching for the lost Xanadu
[05:50.86] Xanadu...
[06:17.40] To stand within the Pleasure Dome
[06:21.04] Decreed by Kubla Khan
[06:24.69] To taste anew the fruits of life
[06:28.70] The last immortal man
[06:32.61] To find the sacred river Alph
[06:36.30] To walk the caves of ice
[06:40.41] Oh, I will dine on honeydew
[06:44.20] And drink the milk of Paradise
[07:41.11] A thousand years have come and gone but time has passed me by
[07:46.44] Stars stopped in the sky
[07:49.64] Frozen in an everlasting view
[07:54.35] Waiting for the world to end, weary of the night
[07:59.67] Praying for the light
[08:02.92] Prison of the lost
[08:05.09] Xanadu
[08:08.69] Xanadu...
[08:34.19] Held within the Pleasure Dome
[08:37.63] Decreed by Kubla Khan
[08:41.69] To taste my bitter triumph
[08:45.08] As a mad immortal man
[08:49.31] Nevermore shall I return
[08:53.05] Escape these caves of ice
[08:56.94] For I have dined on honeydew
[09:00.75] And drunk the milk of Paradise
