The Queen of the Nile
She laid on her throne
And she was drifting downstream
On a barge that was burnished with gold
Royal purple the sails
So sweetly perfumed
And poor Mark Antony's senses were drowned
And his future was doomed
He was blinded by love
The Philistines paid
For Samson's blind rage
The secret that two lovers share
Should never have been betrayed
He was blinded by love
He was blinded by love
And it's no use crying or weeping
You better lock up your soul for safe keeping
Promise me
