[Verse 1]
One thing I was sleeping, and I was taken high
Through the veil of darkness that is stretched across the sky
And though I could see nothing, I heard a voice say this:
("Interflight coordinates for Heliopolis")
[Chorus]
(Beautiful unusual sight) I'm alright
(Helioplis by night) For the first time
(Bathed in gold and shimmering light) Used my eyes
(Helioplis by night)
[Verse 2]
Sent me for the first time to the place they call their home
Words could not describe to you the things that I was shown
And though I was so far away not one thing did I miss
Safe among my friends in golden Heliopolis
(Danced all night)
[Chorus]
(Beautiful unusual sight) Danced all night
(Helioplis by night) For the first time
(Bathed in gold and shimmering light) Used my eyes
(Helioplis by night)
[Bridge]
Ahhhhhh ahhhhahhhahhh
(By night)
Ahhhhhh ahhhhahhhahhh
Ahhh ahhuhhhh
Ahh ahhahhahh
Ahh ahhahhahh
[Chorus]
(Beautiful unusual sight)
(Helioplis by night)
(Everything will be all right)
(Helioplis by night)
[Bridge]
Ahhhhhh ahhhhahhhahhh
(By night)
Ahhhhhh ahhhhahhhahhh
[Verse 3]
And the reason why they took me was something I never learnt
(Heliopolis by night)
My body lay there sleeping when I finally returned
(Heliopolis by night)
And the lover who I left behind woke me with a kiss
And asked where I had been; I answered "Heliopolis."
