Eloy - Sphynx lyrics

surpa**ed celestial gates of light I left the worldly spheres behind into atmospheres unknow to the planet of silence ancient tales have told of sphinx on his throne create an aura unique his superior mind doesn't need space or time pa** through rooms of now and past and leave the future way behind move through dimensions unexplained palace of eternity Wisdom's books I search in these temples of sphynx pyramids of peace meaningless time no such thing as time quetly trace him slowly and finally I confront him he silently gazes with a piercing look I'm overpowered, and struck by anxiety his charisma enlightns me his eyes tell tales I couldn't see sphinx is superior to my fate he motions me, though no word is said one last glance he turns away and he spreads his wings slowly rising soars up to the heights the brightest star yet seen comes into sight ancient tales have told of sphinx on his throne create an aura unique his superior mind doesn't need space or time
