Arabian Nights

Oh, imagine a land, it's a far away place Where the caravan camels roam Where you wander among every culture and tongue It's chaotic but hey, it's home When the wind's from the east and the sun's from the west And the sand in the glass is right Come on down, stop on by, hop a carpet and fly To another Arabian night... As you wind through the streets at the fabled bazaars With the cardamom-cluttered stalls You can smell every spice while you haggle the price Of the silks and the satin shawls Oh, the music that plays as you move through a maze In the haze of your pure delight You are caught in a dance, you are lost in the trance Of another arabian night... Arabian nights like arabian days More often than not, are hotter than hot In a lot of good ways Arabian nights Like Arabian dreams This mystical land of magic and sand Is more than it seems There's a road that may lead you to good or to greed through The power your wishing commands Let the darkness unfold or find fortunes untold Well, your destiny lies in your hands Only one may enter here... One whose worth lies far within, A diamond in the rough! Arabian nights Like Arabian days They seem to excite, take off and take flight To shock and amaze Arabian nights 'Neath Arabian moons A fool of his guard, could fall and fall hard Out there on the dunes
