Lyrics
Mellow moon-beams steal thro' my dreams
And o'er the sea[s] come memories
Wondrous mem'ries of sights that I know,
Nights long ago,
Far o'er the sand
'Neath pyramids in Egyptland.
CHORUS:
Years and years have flown,
Still my soul has known,
Love dies never,
Lives on forever,
And when shadows break
our two souls shall wake,
Wake to live again,
Those dreamy Egyptian nights.
What can it mean,
This mystic scene,
Was it a dream,
Or can it be that our spirits have strayed,
For a while,
Back to the Nile,
Back where we loved,
In wonderful Egyptian nights.
