Tutankhamen Lyrics

Nightwish Tutankhamen

As the sun sets beyond the pyramids
                         To greet me with its rays
                       I place my hand on my forehead
                        To see your chariots' flames
                         Watch me kneel before you
                    Hear the cats meowing in the temple
                      They yearn the milk you cascaded
                     As I yearn that promised treasure
                                Treasure of
                                Tutankhamen
                             I am the one it is
                              Take me with you
                            through the stargate
                         To the valley of the kings
                                Sacrifice me
                                Tutankhamen
                          And let me be your queen
                                  Take me
                             Tonight and always
                       We´ll breed to fill all earth
               Three milleniums it took me to guard your rest
                   Your slumber in mighty Phoenix´s nest
             But tonight the darkness in the tomb has perished
                   For Carter has come to free my beloved
                              (Repeat chorus)
