Doro
Egypt (The Chains Are On)
[Verse 1]
In the land of the lost horizon
Where the queen lies dark and cold
And when the stars won't shine, then the story's told, yeah

[Verse 2]
When the world was milk and honey
And the magic was strong and true
Then the strange ones came and the people knew, oh

[Chorus 1]
That the chains are on
That the chains are on

[Verse 3]
My, my, my
In the land of no tomorrow
Where you pray just to end each day
And your life just slowly melts away

[Verse 4]
Each day you hear the sand as it moves and whispers
Come and sail on my golden sea
Maybe one day you'll be just like me, and that's free

[Chorus 2]
But still, your chains are on
Yes, your chains are on
Still, your chains are on
[Bridge]
You've seen them walking on the water
You've seen them flying through the sky
They were frightening in the darkness
They had rainbows in their eyes

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
When the world was milk and honey
And the magic was strong and true
Then the strange ones came and the people knew, oh

[Chorus 3]
That the chains are on (Chains are on)
That the chains were on (Chains are on)
That the chains were on (Chains are on)
That the chains were on (Chains are on)
Oh, and the chains were on

In the land of the lost horizon
Where the chains are on (Chains are on)
In the land of milk and honey
Where the chains are on (Chains are on)
Where the queen lies dark and lonely
Still, the chains are on (Chains are on)
And the world goes pure magic
But still, the chains are on
Yeah, the chains are on
(You've seen them walking on the water)
And the chains are on
(You've seen them flying through the sky)
And the chains are on (Chains are on)
Yeah, the chains are on (Chains are on)
And the chains are on
And the chains are on (Chains are on)
Where the chains are on
And the chains are on
Still, the chains are on
And the chains are on
Chains are on
Chains are on
The chains are on
