Look away from the sea
I can take you anywhere
Spend a vision with me
A chase with the wind
Move closer to me
I
can make you anyone
I think you're ready to see
The gates of Babylon
The power of what has been before
Rises to trap you
within
A magic carpet ride a genie maybe more
A city of heavenly sin
Sleep with the devil and then you must pay
Sleep with the
devil and the devil will take you away
Oh gates of Babylon
You can see but you're blind
Someone turned the sun around
But
you can see in your mind
The gates of Babylon
You're riding the endless caravan
Bonded and sold as a slave
A sabre dance
removing all the veils
Getting as good as you gave
Sleep with the devil and then you must pay
Sleep with the devil and the devil
will take you away
Look away from the sea
I can take you anywhere
Spend a vision with me
A chase with the wind
Move
closer to me
I can make you anyone
I think you're ready to see
The gates of Babylon
The power of what has been
before
Rises to trap you within
A magic carpet ride a genie maybe more
A city of heavenly sin
Sleep with the devil and then
you must pay
Sleep with the devil and the devil will take you away
Black gates of Babylon
The devil is me
And I'm holding
the key
To the gates of sweet hell
Babylon
