Lyrics

[Verse 1] Here it comes, another lonely day Playing the game, I'll sail away On a voyage of no return to see If eternal life is meant to be And if I find the key To the eternal dream [Verse 2] The painted ladies of the Avalon Play in the sun, take to the road To the north, there lies the chills of cold To the south, there lies the tales untold Oh, but in between, there lies The place to close your eyes [Chorus 1] And I will stay I'll not be back, Eldorado I will be free Of the world, Eldorado [Verse 3] "Say goodbye," the city's heroes sing Bird on the wing, feel, feel so free Oh, the life upon the rooftop haze All the cheating and the broken days So through it all, I see There's nothing left for me [Chorus 2] So I will stay I'll not be back, Eldorado I will be free Of the world, Eldorado [Verse 4] Sitting here on top of everywhere What do I care? Days never end Though the voyage's end will soon be here No eternal life is here for me Oh, and now I found the key To the eternal dream [Chorus 3] Then I will stay I'll not be back, Eldorado I will be free Of the world, Eldorado Then I will stay I'll not be back, Eldorado
