Opium Pits

If I could buy you everything you'd ever need
And everything you'd never want to own
Or just take you back to somewhere you once saw
On the edges of a cold night on the Nile.
Back to some place you've never known
Back to some place that you can't own
You're crashed out in some boat on the Nile
Where no more pharaohs could ever be that brave.
If I could show you the edges of your eyes
The empty lakes of an empty desert night
The lost and lonely canopies of Rhodes
The Cairo skyline which only tries to hide.
Back to some place you've never known
Back to some place that you can't own
You're crashed out in some boat on the Nile
Where no more pharaohs could ever be that brave.
And I could see you look at me
And I could see you looked at me.
Back to some place you've never known
Back to some place that you can't own
You're crashed out on some island on the Nile
Where no more pharaohs could ever kiss your lips
Where I could only hide you like a girl
Back to some place you've never known
Back to some place that you can't own.
