| I am forever searching high and low
|
| But why does everybody tell me no
|
| Neptune of the seas
|
| Have you an answer for me please
|
| And the lily of the valley doesn’t know
|
| I lie and wait with open eyes
|
| I carry on through stormy skies
|
| I follow every course
|
| My kingdom for a horse
|
| But each time I grow old
|
| Serpent of the Nile
|
| Relieve me for a while
|
| And cast me from your spell and let me go
|
| Messenger from Seven Seas has flown
|
| To tell the King of Rhye he’s lost his throne
|
| Wars will never cease
|
| Is there time enough for peace
|
| But the lily of the valley doesn’t know |
