Dio - Egypt (The Chains Are On) Lyrics

In the land of the lost horizon
Where the queen lies dark and cold
And when the stars won't shine, then the story's told yeah

When the world was milk and honey
And the magic was strong and true
Then the strange ones came and the people knew

That the chains are on
That the chains are on

My, my, my in the land of no tomorrow
Where you pray just to end each day
And your life just slowly melts away

Each day you hear the sand as it moves and whispers
Come and sail on my golden sea
Maybe one day you'll be just like me and that's free

But still your chains are on
Yes your chains are on
Still your chains are on

You've seen them walking on the water
You've seen flying through the sky
They were frightening in the darkness
They had rainbows in their eyes

When the world was milk and honey
And the magic was strong and true
The the strange ones came and the people knew

Yeah that the chains are on
(That the chains are on)

That the chains are on in the land of the lost horizon
Where the chains are on
In the land of world was milk and honey
Still your chains are on
Where the queen lies dark and lonely
Still the chains are on
And the world was new and magic
But the chains are on, and the chains are on
Oh the chains are on
Yeah the chains are on, oh the chains are on
And the chains are on, see them walking on the water
And the chains are on, see them flying through the sky
They we're frightening in the darkness (yes chains are on)
They had rainbows in their eyes (the chains are on)
