Come, Xanadu

Come, Xanadu

Come Xanadu

I have seen you in my dreams

I took your hand

And carried you with me

A comfort in times confusing

Though I chose you by your cover

- an ancient mystery gilded in gold -

Your voice is what called to me from deep within

And when I awoke

- alone and cold -

I looked for you by my side

Finding only a peculiar absence

I called your name

And sought the universe in your frame

But when the world answered back

- an empty echo with no source -

I braced myself to face the day alone

Come Xanadu

I have seen you in my dreams

And this night

As the cold winds blow

It is there I will seek to find you once more
