Will you come with me my love?
And wander under upland skies,
We'll wake to see the northern lights
A blazing show of cosmic dyes.
Then ride a silver cable car
That carries us beneath the stars,
Above the pine oil scented trees
And feel that all the world is ours.
Will you come with me my love?
We'll walk along the Nile's shore,
In footprints that the Pharaohs made
Cleopatra, Ptolemy, Ankhor
We'll marvel at the ancient tombs
At Giza, Khafu, great Cheops,
Immerse ourselves within a world
Where myth and magic never stops.
Will you come with me my love?
To leafy palm and blue lagoon
Where whispered lullaby's of waves
Bring sleep, and serenade the moon.
We'll find once more a quiet life
Among the creatures and the land,
As souls renew and spirits feel
The daily brush of nature’s hand.
