Oh let the sun beat down upon my face, stars to fill my dream
 I am a traveler of both time and space, to be where I have been
 To sit with elders of the gentle race, this world has seldom seen
 They talk of days for which they sit and wait and all will be revealed

 Talk and song from tongues of lilting grace, whose sounds caressmy ear
 But not a word I heard could I relate, the story was quite clear
 Oh, oh.

 Oh, I been flying... Oh, mama, there ain't no denyin'
 Oh, Oh, baby, I've been flying... Oh, ain't no denyin', no denyin'

 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 insidea dream
 Heed 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 movin' throughKashmir.

 Oh, father of the four winds, fill my sails, across the sea ofyears
 With no provision but an open face, along the straits of fear
 Ohh.

 When I'm on, when I'm on my way, yeah
 When I see, when I see the way, you stay-yeah

 Ooh, yeah-yeah, ooh, yeah-yeah, when I'm down...
 Ooh, yeah-yeah, ooh, yeah-yeah, well I'm down, so down
 Ooh, my baby, oooh, my baby, let me take you there

 Let me take you there. Let me take you there
