Elton John - The Gods Love Nubia Aida Lyrics

Take me in my dreams recurring
Cheerful as a childhood dance
Into one more taste of freedom
One more longing backward glance

In the sway of somber music
I shall never, never understand
Let me slip into the sweeter
Chorus of that other land

The gods love Nubia, the beautiful, the golden
The radiant, the fertile, the gentle and the blessed
The pain of Nubia is only of the moment
The desolate, the suffering, the plundered, the oppressed

The gods love Nubia, their glorious creation
Their songs roll sweetly across the harvest plain
The tears of Nubia, a passing aberration
They wash into the river and are never cried again!

(picks up speed)

The gods love Nubia, we have to keep believing
Though scattered and divided, we are still its heart
The fall of Nubia, ephemeral and fleeting
The spirit always burning though the flesh is torn apart
Oh, yeah

(pure gospel sound)

Take me in (Take me in)
My dreams recurring (My dreams recurring)
Cheerful as (Cheerful as) a childhood dance (a childhood dance)
Oh, into one (into one) more taste of freedom (more taste of freedom)
One more longing backward glance (one more longing backward glance)

The gods love Nubia, oh the beautiful (the beautiful)
The golden (the golden) the radiant (the radiant) the fertile (the fertile)
the gentle and the blessed (and the blessed!)

The pain of Nubia is only of the moment
The desolate (the desolate) the suffering (the suffering)
The plundered, the oppressed

The gods love Nubia, we have to keep believing
Though scattered and divided we are still its heart
The fall of Nubia, ephemeral and fleeting
The spirit always burning though the flesh is torn apart
The spirit always burning though the flesh is torn
(Aida)
Is torn apart

(Chorus)
Take me in my dreams recurring
One more longing backward glance
