Egyptian Song

I jumped in the river and what did I see?

Black-eyed angels swam with me

A moon full of stars and astral cars

All the things I used to see

All my lovers were there with me

All my past and futures

And we all went to heaven in a little row boat

There was nothing to fear and nothing to doubt



I jumped into the river

Black-eyed angels swam with me

A moon full of stars and astral cars

And all the things I used to see

All my lovers were there with me

All my past and futures

And we all went to heaven in a little row boat

There was nothing to fear and nothing to doubt



There was nothing to fear and nothing to doubt (x2)
