Scheherazade

歌詞

Across the sea of endless dunes There was a city covered in runes That tell the tale of a faithless king And how his wives'd been suffering Each day he wed to another wife And each morning he'd take another life And loyalty could not be found 'Til the day he wed Scheherazade Writhe and spin and tell your tale Bend and twist, your life is frail Writhe and spin and tell your tale Bend and twist, your life is frail A thousand miles across seas of sand There was a prince in a merciful land With Scheherazade he played when young And her lure around him, around he'd hung? She tied her notes to a raptor's claw And he stretched his wings, disobeyed the law That bird of prey flew through the night To tell the prince of Scheherazade's plight Writhe and spin and tell your tale Bend and twist, your life is frail Writhe and spin and tell your tale Bend and twist, your life is frail (repeats)
