There's a star in the east Over pyramids at Giza Where there once lived a girl She ruled the world Then down the Nile He came with a smile He was the king She was the queen Under the moonlight Your eyes won't believe What your mind can't conceive Ooh, ooh Nights over Egypt Nights over Egypt Nights over Egypt Incense and myrrh Girls that swirl To the music Nights over Egypt ♪ Women Fellahin Wear veils to be seen By no one Take a caravan Across the Sudan Saharan facade It's just a mirage Oasis in the sand Where life once began Under the moonlight Your eyes won't believe What your mind can't conceive Ooh, ooh Nights over Egypt Nights over Egypt Nights over Egypt Nights over Egypt Nights over Egypt Nights over Egypt Nights over Egypt Nights over Egypt
