Oh, let the sun beat down upon my face 
And stars fill my dream 
I'm a traveller of both time and space 
To be where I have been 
To sit with elders of the gentle race 
This world has seldom seen 
They talk of days for which they sit and wait 
All will be revealed 

Talk in song from tongues of lilting grace 
Sounds caress my ear 
And not a word I heard could I relate 
The story was quite clear 

Ooh, baby, I been blind 
Oh, yeah, mama, there ain't no denyin' 
Oh, ooh yes, I been blind 
Mama, mama, ain't no denyin', no denyin' 

All I see turns to brown 
As the sun burns the ground 
And my eyes fill with sand 
As I scan this wasted land
Try to find, try to find the way I feel 

Oh, pilot of the storm who leaves no trace 
Like sorts inside a dream 
Leave the path that led me to that place 
Yellow desert stream 
Like Shangri-la beneath the summer moon 
I will return again 
As the dust that floats finds you 
We're moving through Kashmir
 
Oh, father of the four winds fill my sails 
Cross the sea of years 
With no provision but an open face 
Along the straits of fear 
Oh, when I want, when I'm on my way, yeah 
And my feet wear my fickle way to stay 

Ooh,  yeah  yeah,  ooh, yeah  yeah, but I'm down Ooh, yeah  yeah, ooh, yeah  yeah, but I'm down, so down 
Ooh, my baby, oh, my baby 
Let me take you there 
Come on, oh let me take you there 
Let me take you there
