There? s a sky in the east over pyramids at Giza
Where there once lived a girl, she ruled the world
Then down the Nile he came with a smileHe was the king, she was the queen
Under the moonlight your eyes won? t believe
What your mind can? t conceiveNights over Egypt, nights over Egypt
Nights over Egypt, incense and myrrh
And girls that swirl to the music
Nights over EgyptWomen fellahin
Wear veils to been seen by no one
Take a caravan across the Sudan
Saharan facade is just a mirage
Oasis in the sand where life once began
Under the moonlight your eyes won't believe
What your mind can't conceiveNights over Egypt, nights over Egypt
Nights over Egypt, incense and myrrh
And girls that swirl to the music
Nights over EgyptNights, nights, nights over Egypt
Nights, nights, nights over EgyptOasis in the sand where life once began
Your eyes won't believe
What your mind can't conceive, oh yeahWhere there once lived a girl and she ruled the water
Then down the Nile he came with a smile
Take a caravan across the desert sand
He was the king and she was the queen
Nights, nights, nights over Egypt
Nights, nights, nights over Egypt
Nights, nights, nights over Egypt
Nights, nights
