Oh let the sun beat down upon my face, stars to fill my dream |
|
I am a traveler of both time and space, to be where I have been |
|
To sit with elders of the gentle race, this world has seldom seen |
|
They talk of days for which they sit and wait and all will be revealed |
|
Talk and song from tongues of lilting grace, whose sounds caress my ear |
|
But not a word I heard could I relate, the story was quite clear |
|
Oh, oh. |
|
All I see turns to brown, as the sun burns the ground |
|
And my eyes fill with sand, as I scan this wasted land |
|
Trying to find, trying to find where I've been. |
|
Oh, pilot of the storm who leaves no trace, like thoughts inside a dream |
|
Heed the path that led me to that place, yellow desert stream |
|
My Shangri-La beneath the summer moon, I will return again |
|
Sure as the dust that floats high in June, when movin' through Kashmir. |
|
Oh, father of the four winds, fill my sails, across the sea of years |
|
With no provision but an open face, along the straits of fear |
|
Ohh. |
|
When I'm on, when I'm on my way, yeah |
|
When I see, when I see the way, you stay-yeah |
|
Ooh, yeah-yeah, ooh, yeah-yeah, when I'm down... |
|
Ooh, yeah-yeah, ooh, yeah-yeah, well I'm down, so down |
|
Ooh, my baby, oooh, my baby, let me take you there |
|
Let me take you there. Let me take you there |
