Egypt (The Chains Are On)

Lyrics

[Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] In the land of the lost horizon Where the queen lies dark and cold And when the stars won't shine Then the story's told, yeah [Verse 2] When the world was milk and honey And the magic was strong and true Then the strange ones came And the people knew Oh-oh-oh [Chorus] That the chains were on That the chains were on [Verse 3] My, my, my In the land of no tomorrow Where you pray just to end each day And your life just slowly melts away Each day you hear the sand [Verse 4] As it moves and whispers Come and sail on my golden sea Maybe one day you'll be just like me And that's free [Chorus] But still your chains are on Yes, your chains are on Still, your chains are on [Bridge] You've seen them walking on the water You've seen them flying through the sky They were frightening in the darkness They had rainbows in their eyes [Guitar Solo] [Verse 2] When the world was milk and honey And the magic was strong and true Then the strange ones came And the people knew, yeah [Chorus] That the chains were on That the chains were on That the chains were on That the chains were on Oh my, the chains were on [Verse 5] In the land of the lost horizon Where the chains are on In the land of milk and honey Still, the chains are on [Verse 6] Where the queen lies dark and lonely Still, her chains are on And the world was new and magic But the chains are on [Chorus] The chains were on, the chains were on Yeah, the chains were on The chains were on, the chains were on [Outro] Seen them walking on the water The chains were on Seen them flying through the sky My, the chains were on They were frightening in the darkness Yes, the chains were on They had rainbows in their eyes The chains were on
