(M. Jagger/K. Richards)
|
The queen of the Nile
|
She laid on her throne
|
And she was drifting downstream
|
On a barge that was burnished with gold
|
Royal purple the sails
|
So sweetly perfumed
|
And poor Mark Antony's
|
Senses were drowned
|
And his future was doomed
|
He was blinded by love
|
He was blinded by love
|
The Philistines paid
|
For Samson's blind rage
|
The secrets that two lovers share
|
Should never have been betrayed
|
He was blinded by love
|
He was blinded by love
|
Now it's no use crying or weeping
|
You better lock up your soul for safe keeping
|
Promise me
|
The poor Prince of Wales
|
He gave up his crown
|
All for the trivial pursuit of
|
A parvenu second-hand lady
|
So lovers beware
|
If you lose your heart
|
Careful now, don't lose your mind
|
Don't mortgage your soul to a stranger
|
Don't be blinded by love
|
Don't be blinded by love
|
Blinded by love, Blinded by love
|
