Time-sugared hearts
Are reinventions of their pasts
The alchemy of love
Changes forms and changes paths
Endless deserts of glitter
Strobing colors at the moon
Esoteric riddles lay
Like sparks upon the dunes
Gravity of the unknowable
Like perfume in the air
Pulls the center of the soul
Like an unanswered prayer
And in the instant heaven blinks
I alone can be your
Sphinx!
Sphinx!
Sphinx!
A glow of superstition
And a pomegranate heart
Its pieces glint like jewels
As each one is pulled apart
Oh I am the oracle
Of love luminescent
Reciting darkest prophecies
Under Venus's crescent
Gravity of the unknowable
Like perfume in the air
Pulls the center of the soul
Like an unanswered prayer
Moving like a prowling lynx...
I alone can be your...
Sphinx!
Sphinx!
Sphinx!
Buried in the shifting sands
Cities wait their turn
To rise in splendor ever grand
Eventually to burn
Verses sown return the jinx (Oh I can feel it!)
Burning incense sunlight sinks (Oh I can feel it!)
From the fountain the angel drinks (Oh oh oh oh oh oh!)
I alone and forever can be your
Sphinx!
Baby I'm your only
Sphinx!
Baby I'm your only
Sphinx!
Oh!
Sphinx!
Baby I'm your only
Baby I'm your only
Oh!
Baby I'm your only
Baby I'm your only
Sphinx!
