Kashmir

Lyrics for Kashmir

Oh, let the Sun beat down upon my face With stars to fill my dreams I am a traveler of both time and space To be where I have been Sit with elders of the gentle race This world has seldom seen Talk of days for which they sit and wait All will be revealed Talk and song from tongues of lilting grace Whose sounds caress my ear But not a word I heard could I relate The story was quite clear Oh, oh Oh, baby, I've been flying No, yeah, mama, there ain't no denying Oh, oh, yeah, I've been flying Mama, mama, ain't no denying, no denying Oh, all I see turns to brown As the Sun burns the ground And my eyes fill with sand As I scan this wasted land Trying to find, trying to find where I've been Oh, pilot of the storm who leaves no trace Like thoughts inside a dream Here is the path that led me to that place Yellow desert stream My Shangri-La beneath the summer Moon I will return again Sure as the dust that floats high in June When moving through Kashmir Oh, father of the four winds, fill my sails Across the sea of years With no provision but an open face Along the straits of fear Oh, oh no Oh, when I'm on When I'm on my way, yeah When I see When I see the way, you'll stay, yeah Oh, yeah, yeah Oh, yeah, yeah, when I'm down Oh, yeah, yeah Oh, yeah, yeah, but I'm down, so down Oh, my baby Oh, my baby, let me take you there Oh, come on, come on, oh Let me take you there, let me take you there Oh, yeah, yeah Oh, yeah, yeah
