Lyrics

Forbidden City

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Okay, dream of freedom

Under the moon in the dragon room

Inside the mind of a soul confined

Don't talk about soon in the dragon room

Under the scream of a jet machine

Who knows in the hills

Who knows when she will

When all the hidden pity in the forbidden city comes out

When all the hidden pity in the forbidden city comes out

When all the hidden pity in the forbidden city comes out

When all the hidden pity in the forbidden city comes out, oh, yeah

Gold silk in a loom in the dragon room

That silk that will be for the flag of the free

Who knows in the hills

Who knows when she will

When all the hidden pity in the forbidden city comes out

When all the hidden pity in the forbidden city comes out

When all the hidden pity in the forbidden city comes out

When all the hidden pity in the forbidden city comes out, oh, yeah

Yeah, China

Whoa, oh, China

Yeah, China

When all the hidden pity in the forbidden city comes out

When all the hidden pity in the forbidden city comes out

When all the hidden pity in the forbidden city comes out

When all the hidden pity in the forbidden city comes out

Oh, China
