There you may stand in your splendour and jewels[00:00:05]
Swaying me in both directions [00:00:10]
One is the right one the other for fools[00:00:16]
How do I make my selection [00:00:21]
The city lies silent in the warm morning light[00:00:26]
The sand is as golden as saffron [00:00:31]
Oasis of love sweet water of life[00:00:35]
God bless the poor ones who have none though they have tried [00:00:41]
Someone is drowning down there in the flood[00:00:51]
But this river will dry by tomorrow [00:00:56]
Is it ocean or stream this love in my blood[00:01:00]
Bringer of joy or of sorrow [00:01:06]
The end of the journey must soon be in sight[00:01:11]
Birth is the start of the swansong [00:01:16]
Oasis of love sweet water of life[00:01:21]
God bless the poor ones who want some but are denied [00:01:26]
No one is given the map to their dreams[00:01:36]
All we can do is to trace it [00:01:41]
See where we go to[00:01:46]
Know where weve been[00:01:49]
Build up the courage to face it[00:01:51]
While we fumble in the darkness where once there was light[00:01:56]
Roaming the land of the ancients [00:02:01]
Oasis of love sweet water of life[00:02:06]
God bless the poor ones whose patience never died [00:02:11]
While we stumble in blindness where once there was sight[00:02:18]
Searching for trees in the forest [00:02:24]
Oasis of love sweet water of life[00:02:28]
God bless the poor ones so helpless they have cried [00:02:34]
God bless the poor ones who have none though they have tried [00:02:41]
God bless the poor ones who want some but are denied [00:02:48]
God bless the poor ones whose patience never died [00:02:56]
God bless the poor ones on that one way donkey ride[00:03:02]
