Beyond the temple There lies a tomb with a king from long ago A traveler from a distant planet Ten thousand years or so The legend tells of an agin' man Whose city he built alone Till the pirates of our western world Tore it down stone by stone
The clouds are gettin' heavy As he points unto the sky But with the guidance of his finger He let the lightning fly
So don't turn around, don't turn around Lightning don't strike twice Don't turn around, don't turn around Death is a very high price
He gathered up his people And he took them underground To the caves of silvery water Where they never could be found
The king came to the surface Could not believe what he had found The temple left in ruins His city knocked to the ground
He went back to his people Sad news he had to tell The only justice for the king Was to put these men in hell
So don't turn around, don't turn around Lightning don't strike twice Don't turn around, don't turn around Death is a very high price
His face showing sorrow His heart full of grief His life's work in ruins Destroyed by a thief
His people just sit around His children just cry The king's mind is all confused Just wonderin' why
The temple split in half And scattered through the desert The dust had risen in the air The race of people had to live in devastation Why wasn't he even there?
Message from the gods to gather up his people The kingdom couldn't lose them there That's when all the gods and all are livin' peaceful Just a galaxy away
The king rose up from underground To light the darkened sky Red lights, green lights, blue lights flashing It seemed a mile high
As it lifted from the ground And soared into the air The king looked at what might have been A world that needed care
A storm had risen quickly Across the take of hope Now there's no trace of the king Just a memory carved in stone
So don't turn around, don't turn around Lightning don't strike twice Don't turn around, don't turn around Death is a very high price Don't turn around, don't turn around Lightning don't strike twice Don't turn around, don't turn around Death is a very high priceTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
