Rush - Xanadu lyrics

[Rush - Xanadu lyrics]

"To seek the sacred river Alph
To walk the caves of ice
To break my fast on honeydew
And drink the milk of Paradise"

I had heard the whispered
Tales of immortality the deepest mystery
From an ancient book I took a clue
I scaled the frozen mountain tops
Of eastern lands unknown time and Man alone
Searching for the lost Xanadu xanadu

To stand within the Pleasure Dome
Decreed by Kubla Khan
To taste anew the fruit's of life
The last immortal man
To find the sacred river Alph
To walk the caves of ice
Oh, I will dine on honeydew
And drink the milk of Paradise oh, paradise!

A thousand years have come and gone
But time has passed me by
Stars stopped in the sky
Frozen in an everlasting view
Waiting for the world to end
Weary of the night praying for the light
Prison of the lost xanadu
Xanadu

Held within the Pleasure Dome
Decreed by Kubla Khan
To taste my bitter triumph
As a mad immortal man
Nevermore shall I return
Escape these caves of ice
For I have dined on honeydew
And drunk the milk of Paradise
Woah, is it paradise?
