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 jewel 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 pass 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
