New Egypt Lyrics
I was slightly alarmed by the way you tossed your hair
I was a princess; you were the fortified walls of a city
As the two-thousand marched in and out.
And if I had to run away, I’d hold your body near.
And if we had to find a way out of here
I’d take you back to New Egypt.
Blonde hair, mounting your shoulders.
Green eyes, looking past the bay.
Watch them watch into the fortified walls of the city
Look at the princess as she runs away!
And if I had to realize how you saw me sitting in the barge
And if I had to cull your mind,
I would make them report back to New Egypt.
You, speckled servant, you hold to me tightly.
I beg not for solace, ask for forgiveness and you will be seething
And if we had to run away I’d make you my wife!
And if we had to find the day I’d take you back to New Egypt.
I was a princess; you were the fortified walls of a city
As the two-thousand marched in and out.
And if I had to run away, I’d hold your body near.
And if we had to find a way out of here
I’d take you back to New Egypt.
Green eyes, looking past the bay.
Watch them watch into the fortified walls of the city
Look at the princess as she runs away!
And if I had to realize how you saw me sitting in the barge
And if I had to cull your mind,
I would make them report back to New Egypt.
I beg not for solace, ask for forgiveness and you will be seething
And if we had to run away I’d make you my wife!
And if we had to find the day I’d take you back to New Egypt.
