Egypt (the Chains Are On) Lyrics - Strong And Proud: 30 Years Of Rock & Roll Metal - Doro

In the land of the lost horizon 

Where the queen lies dark and cold 

When the stars won't shine, then the story's told 

When the world was milk and honey 

And the magic was strong and true 

Then the strange ones came and the people knew 

That the chains are on 

In the land of no tomorrow 

Where you pray just to end each day 

And your life just slowly melts away 

Each day you hear the sand as it moves and whispers 

Come and sail on my golden sea 

Maybe one day you'll be just like me...and that's free 

But still your chains are on 

You've seen them walking on the water 

You've seen flying through the sky 

They were frightening in the darkness 

They had rainbows in their eyes 

When the world was milk and honey 

And the magic was strong and true 

The the strange ones came and the people knew 

That the chains are on
