The Legend of Zanadu - Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick & Tich/Dave Dee/Dozy/Beaky/Mick & Tich

You'll hear my words

On the winds 'cross the sand

If you should return

To that black barren land that bears the name

Of xanadu

First without hope was our love

Then I saw it was lost from the start

It was the jewel that was nestling in the heart

Of xanadu

And the footprints leave their traces

Only shadows move in places

Where we used to go

And the buildings open to the sky

All echo to the sky as if to show

Our love was for a day

And soon to pass away

In xanadu in xanadu in xanadu

In xanadu in xanadu in xanadu

What was it to you that a man

Laid down his life for your love

Were those clear eyes of yours

Ever filled with pain and grief

Did you ever give yourself

To one man in this whole wide world

You left me

And will you find your way back

One day to Xanadu

You'll hear my voice

On the winds 'cross the sand

If you should return

To that black barren land that bears the name

Of xanadu

In xanadu in xanadu

In xanadu in xanadu
