Serenity - Shining Oasis lyrics

Unknown lands, their call ever strong
Then, my chance to set out for where I belong

Left my home and crossed the sea
Dropped my old idenity
Found another way to live my life
Learned their language and their rites but
Had this dream in many nights
The one about the day when I return again

Sunlight's glance is enchanting the place
Colours dance on walls hewn
In far ancient days

Rose red city in the sand
True myth from an Eastern land
I am standing breathless, without words
Temples under deep blue skies
Unknown to European eyes
Centuries they had slept here
In desert's heart

In these lands illusions can fool you
In merciless lights they glitter
Ancient wonders did reveal
The place I found is real
History will know my name

I will tell them of marvels my eyes have seen
Grandest of places where I've ever been
Shingin oasis, dream made of stone
My fate led me there where desert winds moan
