Sheherazade

Shahryār,
the great king,
had a wife who served not him
Oh, unfaithful was her mind

The Persian king
had been betrayed
and his heart, it fell apart
into a thousand pieces
forevermore

Prechorus:
“From now on
bring me a bride
for one day and one night
and when the sun begins to rise:

Come what may,
take her life away
Let me see how she dies
'cause

Chorus:
No love is left in me
Now for eternity
Only their company
will fill my emptiness inside”

Suddenly,
a woman came
to put an end to Shahryār’s pain
Sheherazade was her name

In one thousand and one nights
his heart’s one thousand pieces could find
to each other by her tales

Prechorus:
“From now on
stay by my side
for another day and another night
and when the sun begins to rise:

Come what may,
don’t go away
Tell me stories with which time flies
'cause only

Chorus 2x:
You give love to me
Now for eternity
Only your company
will fill my emptiness inside

Sheherazade, my shining light
Sheherazade, you shine so bright”

“I’m here
I’ll be with you for another
one thousand and one nights”
