Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
You are a dreamer of dreams walking a lonely shore Dream if you will but remember there are iron laws However much you seek to solve this mystery No one ignores the iron vice of history All those gone before dreamed to escape They tried to fly over the palisades Standing at the gates This is Jericho And the walls reach up to the stars And outside we were singing psalms Such a strange, strange place For we are the prisoners Of the prisoners we have taken And the prophets' dreams are now forsaken Sing me the songs of a world that I once knew Recall the legends once so proud and true My people used to live here not so long ago But they fled into the night and I was left alone I guard these walls for you and me Dream on, sail on my memory Standing at the gates This is Jericho And the walls reach up to the stars And outside we were singing psalms Such a strange, strange place For we are the prisoners Of the prisoners we have taken And the prophets' dreams are now forsaken
