Sleeping Memories by W.A.Adams

When I was the king of Araby

And you were the Queen of Cathay

   In a silvered ship with gossamer sails

      I came and stole you away

To an unknown shore in an uncharted sea

And there at the top of my tower

I carried you up and laid you down

And I showed you all of my powers

We loved till the moon grew pale with envy

And you had no thought but to stay

Till the walls had crumbled to ruin

And the wind blew the dust all away

When I was the King of Araby

And you,

You were the Queen of Cathay
