I was standing by the nile

When I saw the lady smile

I would take her out for a while

For a while



Oh, my tears wept like a child

How her golden hair was blowing wild

Then she spread her wings to fly

For to fly



Soaring high above the breezes

Going always where she pleases

She will make it to the islands in the sun



I will follow in her shadow

As I watch her from my window

One day I will catch her eye



She is calling from the deep

Summoning my soul to endless sleep

She is bound to drag me down

Drag me down
