Song | The Nile |
Artist | Santana |
Album | Shango |
Written:Carlos Santana/Alexander J.Ligertwood/Gregg Roli | |
Woke up into a dream | |
And I was walking | |
Up and down the streets | |
Of Cairo | |
And then I heard a voice | |
That said I know you | |
It's time for you to turn | |
And face me | |
Her hair was long | |
Her eyes reached out and touched me | |
She said I know just | |
What it is you're after | |
Death is all around you | |
So you look for freedom | |
I know where to find it | |
Let's go to the river | |
We sailed upon the Nile | |
I was enchanted | |
By the beauty in her magic | |
She showed me that my fears were unimportant | |
And then she touched me | |
With her vision | |
Her skin was dark | |
Her voice was liquid fire | |
She said I am your mate | |
And soul's desire | |
Love is all around you | |
Light is deep within you | |
Life is always flowing | |
Let's go down the river |
