[Intro] The sun descends behind the golden spires The desert wakes to ancient holy fires [Verse 1] She steps through arches carved of white and gold A story that the shifting sands have told With emerald eyes that pierce the amber haze The kingdom falls beneath her silent gaze [Chorus] Dance of the blooming desert moon tonight Wrapped in a veil of shimmering silver light Every motion turns the dust to grain of gold A secret power that the heavens hold [Verse 2] The warriors bow their heads upon the floor As she approaches through the temple door Her skin is painted with the setting sun The ritual of ages has begun [Chorus] Dance of the blooming desert moon tonight Wrapped in a veil of shimmering silver light Every motion turns the dust to grain of gold A secret power that the heavens hold [Bridge] Beneath the domes where incense starts to rise The truth is hidden in her darkened eyes A queen of shadows and a bride of flame The dunes will whisper out her sacred name [Interlude] (Instrumental Solo) [Climax] Spinning faster as the stars begin to glow The tides of destiny begin to flow She is the heartbeat of the burning land The world is resting in her golden hand [Outro] The moon is high above the sleeping sand The goddess lingers in this ancient land
