Oh imagine a land
|
it's a faraway place
|
Where the caravan camels roam
|
Where you wander among
|
every culture and tongue
|
It's chaotic but hey it's home
|
When the wind's from the east
|
And the sun's from the west
|
And the sand in the glass is right
|
Come on down stop on by
|
Hop a carpet and fly
|
To another Arabian night
|
As you wind through
|
the streets at the fabled bazaars
|
With the cardamom-
|
cluttered stalls
|
You can smell every spice
|
While you haggle the price
|
Of the silks and the satin shawls
|
Oh the music that plays
|
as you move through a maze
|
In the haze of your pure delight
|
You are caught in a dance
|
You are lost in the trance
|
Of another Arabian night
|
Arabian nights
|
Like Arabian days
|
More often than
|
not are hotter than hot
|
In a lot of good ways
|
Arabian nights
|
Like Arabian dreams
|
This mystical land
|
of magic and sand
|
Is more than it seems
|
There's a road that may lead you
|
To good or to greed through
|
The power your wishing commands
|
Let the darkness unfold
|
or find fortunes untold
|
Well your destiny lies in your hands
|
Only one may enter here
|
one whose worth lies far within
|
A diamond in the rough
|
Arabian nights
|
Like Arabian days
|
They seem to excite
|
take off and take flight
|
To shock and amaze
|
Arabian nights
|
'Neath Arabian moons
|
A fool off his guard could
|
fall and fall hard
|
Out there on the dunes
|
