[Verse 1]
I was standing by the Nile
When I saw the lady smile
I would take her out for a while
For a while
[Verse 2]
Like tears left like a child
How her golden hair was blowing wild
Then she spread her wings to fly
For to fly
[Verse 3]
Soaring high above the breezes
Going always where she pleases
She will make it to the islands in the sun
[Verse 4]
I will follow in her shadow
As I watch her from my window
One day I will catch her eye
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 5]
She is calling from the deep
Summoning my soul to endless sleep
She is bound to drag me down
Drag me down
[Instrumental Outro]
