The Fall - The Legend Of Xanadu lyrics

You cannot legislate against wrongful encouagement You'll hear my words On the winds 'cross the sand If you should return To that black barren land that bears the name of Xanadu First without hope was our love Then I saw it was lost from the start It was the j**el that was nestling in the heart of Xanadu And the footprints leave their traces Only shadows move in places where we used to go And the buildings open to the sky All echo to the sky as if to show Our love was for a day And soon to pa** away in Xanadu In Xanadu On holiday In Xanadu, in Xanadu, in Xanadu What was it to you that a man laid down his life for your love? Were those clear eyes of yours ever filled with pain and grief? Did you ever give yourself to one man in this whole wide world? You left me but you will find your way back To that black barren land that bears the name of Xanadu You'll hear my voice cross the winds on the sand If you should return To Xanadu, to Xanadu, to Xanadu To Xanadu
