By steve winwood and jim capaldi I had a strange dream from a pearly queen, And she could drink more wine than i've ever seen. She had some gypsy's blood flowing through her feet, And when the time was right she said that i would meet My destiny. I traveled 'round the world to find the sun. I couldn't stop myself from having fun, But when the time was right, the flowers grew But they were made of silk and sequins, two by two. I traveled 'round the world to find the sun.
