King of Persia Lyrics

Every night it crawls into my mind
burning anger, iron hand
empty tombs that I have left behind
down the Nile, that sacred land

All the deeds I have done in the past
'fore my eyes, right from the start
the end has finally come, it's here at last
now dying, I'm torn apart

But an angel came and called my name
King of Persia woe to you I say
and I knew I'd never be the same
out of darkness I have found the way

Far beyond eternity, far from the dark
take me there, just leaving sorrow behind
well, breathing my last breath by your side
I believe I will be redeemed


Ev'ry night I have the same bad dream
about the table of the sun
I seem to know what this should mean
Ethiopia not undone!

Blinded I turned to fratricide
there is only pain I feel inside

Far beyond eternity, far from the dark
take me there, just leaving sorrow behind
well, breathing my last breath by your side
I believe I will be...

Far beyond eternity, far from the dark
take me there, just leaving sorrow behind
well, breathing my last breath by your side
I believe I will be redeemed

Solos

Far beyond eternity, far from the dark
take me there, just leaving sorrow behind
well, breathing my last breath by your side
I believe I will be...

Far beyond eternity, far from the dark
take me there, just leaving sorrow behind
well, breathing my last breath by your side
I believe I will be redeemed
I will be redeemed
