Yellow Raven Lyrics
Scorpions
Lyrics
The yellow raven sipped the air
Of thunder and of rain
The yellow raven sipped the air
Gentle eyes kissing the rain
Where do you go
Fantastic dreambird?
Take me away to somewhere
Take me away from here
Where do you go
Fantastic dreambird?
Answer to my yearning
Take me away from here
The firebird began to cry
When the music died away
The firebird began to cry
And smoke was slowly driftin' by
Where do you go
Fantastic dreambird?
Take me away to somewhere
Take me away from here
Where do you go
Fantastic dreambird?
Answer to my yearning
Take me away from here
