Lyrics:
Come and eat this lotus seed
And fly away with me to somewhere sleepy
Forget about the worries on your mind
And sail upon a silver star
That leads us to land of endless dreaming
Hidden from the watchful eye of time
And High above the clouds, I’ll lay my body down by your side
And I’ll write for you a prayer, and tuck it in your hair for you to find
And if you say the magic words
And promise they are true
Maybe I’d go back to earth
As long as I’m with you
So paint the phrase upon your tongue
And dress it up in sheets of finest linen
Softer than a weeping shade of pale
And rest your head upon my breast
And trace the silhouettes as we go spinnin’
Around the winged horse and through the scales
And if our eyes should meet, up where the air is sweet and sound
Maybe you would see, how much you really mean to me now
For if you say the magic words
And promise they are true
Maybe I’d go back to earth
As long as I’m with you for you
But should all these fantasies
Crumble and fade
I’ll scatter the lotus seeds
Around my grave
So tell me with your gentle lips
And lay a tender kiss upon my forehead
And stay with me wherever we should land
Or tie the rope around my throat
And leave a final note to lay by my bed
So anyone who reads can understand
That all I really know, is how to feel alone at night
And wonder in my head if I was ever meant for this life
But if you say the magic words
And promise they are true
Maybe I could face the world
As long as I’m with you
