Confident at
last we have set ourselves for
Egypt
A new
Eden, a new gate left behind
We are all alone,
oh but we have new horizons
Saviors of the feeble and the blind
Oh, we have fled from disaster
Oh, we have fled from a sign
Oh, we have sailed all these
passing days
Showering friendship and praise
Taking men aboard,
we began to have misgivings
Victims of an opulent parade
But smiling now we leave the golden
island of our fathers
Seeking out the errors of our ways
Oh, we have fled from disaster
Oh, we have fled from a sign
Oh, we have sailed all these
passing days
Showering friendship and
praising the day
When the cold sea mist was lifting,
cold drives a wedge into our eyes
I am smiling,
smiling at a restlessness I've known
Looking for an all that is my own
But now I leave the shanty towns,
the castles in the south
Should I trip and stumble,
fall into the lion's mouth?
We are drifting needlessly,
won't you come and marry me?
Quick, before our ship
can reach dry land
