Locked away beneath the sand
Reads a book of a foreign land
With trees of gold
And secrets untold
The world seemed to spin at the heart of the page
The records it keeps turns the sand to a cage
The cage is broken, parts of it lay around
The cage holds the secrets of a forgotten town
The forgotten town with houses of flowers
With big fountains and rivers and bunches of towers
Beneath the towers lay sheets of thin sand
Reads a book of a foreign land
With trees of gold
And secrets untold
The world seemed to spin at the heart of the page ~
