Serenity - Beyond Desert Sands lyrics
[Serenity - Beyond Desert Sands lyrics]
'Unbelievable' - that's what they say
When I speak true
Then they jeer at me like fools may do
So deplorable, this narrow-minded ignorance
I won't tell them how my story ends
Tell me why should I lie as I'm going to die
All my memories are true, I swear
I remember them
The kingdoms of the rising sun
And I still hear the sound of silver chimes
Gold and ivory
Precious gems and silken robes
Marble palaces from sunken times
Illusions, all troubles and tears?
Had I been dreaming my
Life for seventeen years?
So many wonders I've seen
Roaming the far eastern lands
Beyond desert sands
My second life had begun
In the service of China's great Khan
As a respected and far travelled man
I would see my dear homeland again
When I speak true
Then they jeer at me like fools may do
So deplorable, this narrow-minded ignorance
I won't tell them how my story ends
Tell me why should I lie as I'm going to die
All my memories are true, I swear
I remember them
The kingdoms of the rising sun
And I still hear the sound of silver chimes
Gold and ivory
Precious gems and silken robes
Marble palaces from sunken times
Illusions, all troubles and tears?
Had I been dreaming my
Life for seventeen years?
So many wonders I've seen
Roaming the far eastern lands
Beyond desert sands
My second life had begun
In the service of China's great Khan
As a respected and far travelled man
I would see my dear homeland again
