The Nile

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
