Egypt (The Chains Are On)

Lyrics

[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 [Chorus 1] That the chains are on That the chains are 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 [Verse 4] Each day you hear the sand 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 2] 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 [Instrumental Break] [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 [Chorus 3] That the chains are on (Chains are on) That the chains were on (Chains are on) That the chains were on (Chains are on) That the chains were on (Chains are on) Oh, and the chains were on In the land of the lost horizon Where the chains are on (Chains are on) In the land of milk and honey Where the chains are on (Chains are on) Where the queen lies dark and lonely Still, the chains are on (Chains are on) And the world goes pure magic But still, the chains are on Yeah, the chains are on (You've seen them walking on the water) And the chains are on (You've seen them flying through the sky) And the chains are on (Chains are on) Yeah, the chains are on (Chains are on) And the chains are on And the chains are on (Chains are on) Where the chains are on And the chains are on Still, the chains are on And the chains are on Chains are on Chains are on The chains are on
