Only one may enter here
One whose worth lies far within
A diamond in the rough
As you wind through the streets at the fabled bazaars
With the cardamom-cluttered stalls
You can smell every spice as you haggle the price
Of the silks and the satin shawls
Oh, the music that plays as you move through a maze
In the haze of your pure delight
You are caught in a dance, you are lost in the trance
Of another Arabian night
Arabian nights
Like Arabian days
More often than not
Are hotter than hot
In a lot of good ways
Arabian nights
Like Arabian dreams
This mystical land
Of magic and sand
Is more than it seems
[2x]
There's a road that may lead you to good or to greed
Through the power your wishing commands
Let the darkness unfold or find fortunes untold
Well, your destiny lies in your hands
Only one may enter here
One whose worth lies far within
A diamond in the rough
Arabian nights
Like Arabian days
They seem to excite
Take off and take flight
To shock and amaze
Arabian nights
Beneath Arabian moons
A fool off his guard
Could fall and fall hard
Out there on the dunes
