The Legend of Zanadu Lyrics
The Legend Of Xanadu - Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick & Tich
Written by:Alan Tudor Blaikley/Ken Howard
You'll hear my voice
On the wind
'Cross the sand
If you should return
To that black barren land that bears the name
Of xanadu
Cursed without hope
Was the love
That I sought
Lost from the start
Was the duel that was fought to win a heart
In xanadu
Now no footprints leave no traces
Only shadows move in places where we used to go
And the buildings open to the sky
All echo with the vultures cry as if to show
Our love was
For a day
And doomed to
Pass away
In xanadu
In xanadu
In xanadu
Ahhhh
In xanadu
In xanadu
In xanadu
What was it to you that a man
Laid down his life for your love
Were those clear eyes of yours ever
Filled with the pain of tears and grief
Did you ever give yourself
To any one man in this whole wide world
Or did you love me
And will you find your way back one day
To xanadu
You'll hear my voice
On the wind
'Cross the sand
If you should return
To that black barren land that bears the name
Of xanadu
In xanadu
In xanadu
In xanadu
In xanadu
