The Legend Of Xanadu

You'll hear my voice, on the wind, cross the sand,
If you should return
To that black, barren land, that bears the name of Xanadu.

Cursed, without hope, was the love that I sought,
Lost from the start,
Was the duel that was fought to win a heart in Xanadu.

Now no footprints leave no traces
Only shadows move in places, where we used to go.
And the buildings, open to the sky,
All echo with the vultures cry as if to show.

Our love was for a day, and doomed to pass away,
In Xanadu, in Xanadu, in Xanadu!

What was it to you that a man laid down his life for your love?
Were those clear eyes of yours
Ever filled with the pain of tears and grief?
Did you ever give yourself to any one man in this whole wide world?
Or did you love me and will you find your way back one day to Xanadu?

You'll hear my voice, on the wind, cross the sand,
If you should return
To that black, barren land, that bears the name of Xanadu.

In Xanadu, in Xanadu, in Xanadu!
