Banks of the Nile |
| A boy and his sweetheart\nIn Egypt’s land of mystery\nHad a love as strange as the pages of time\nNow he was a shephard and she was a princess\nThey knew love’s destiny they would never find\nLife, love and their happiness\nShown like the stars all the while\nTheir love was strange and their love was true\nOn the banks of the beautiful Nile\nWith hands locked together\nThey walked into the darkness\nThe river knows the answer as they walked out of sight\nPalm trees whisper softly as shadows kiss the dew\nThere’ll be a new tomorrow but love’s so strange and true\nLife, love and their happiness\nShown like the stars all the while\nTheir love was strange and their love was true\nOn the banks of the beautiful Nile |
