Inside the Pyramid of Light

The warm desert winds caress and touch her skin tonight
The stars light her face, celestial embrace tonight
The Queen she bathed in incense, her daddy’s little princess
Like the Nile, she’s a sacred river
I’m like a beast to the slaughter
Gods could not have taught her what she knows
When she’s in control

Down, down, down, I dared to look into her eyes
Deeper than my soul
She read the great book of lovers, cover page to cover
Spins me like a top tonight

Inside the pyramid of light
She’ll put the desert in your soul
She is the isthmus
Standing in her light, away into the night we go
Inside the pyramid of light
Within the myriad of gold
My Cleopatra, timeless as the Nile
Mysterious and wild tonight
Inside the pyramid of light

I came from the North with legions and a cause of fight
But tall city walls could not resist the force tonight
The moment that I kissed her, “My Anthony” she whispered
When she spoke it was sweet and low
“lust treat your heart as a weakness
Hide it with the things you never show
Never let them show”

Down, down, down

Inside the pyramid of light
She’ll put the desert in your soul
She is the isthmus
Standing in her light, away into the night we go
Inside the pyramid of light
Within the myriad of gold
My Cleopatra, timeless as the Nile
Mysterious and wild tonight
Inside the pyramid of light
