[Verse]
Woke up into a dream
And I was walking
Up and down the streets
Of Cairo
And then I heard a voice
That said I know you
It's time for you to turn
And face me
Her hair was long
Her eyes reached out and touched me
She said I know just
What it is you're after
Death is all around you
So you look for freedom
I know where to find it
Let's go to the river
We sailed upon the Nile
I was enchanted
By the beauty in her magic
She showed me that my fears were unimportant
And then she touched me
With her vision

[Chorus][x2]
Her skin was dark
Her voice was liquid fire
She said I am your mate
And soul's desire
Love is all around you
Light is deep within you
Life is always flowing
Let's go down the river
