Springtime in Tangier

The sky's getting wider

Renewing it's splendour

The word's getting brighter



Setting out just like the sun

That's never seen the rain

Stepping out we're homeward bound

And never be the same



Ah - we lay our hearts wide open

Ah - we live mysterious days

Ah - the spell cannot be broken

Ah - we live mysterious days



American writers

Now work in the attic

Up in the Casbah

There's plenty to worship



Shine again Arabian Moon

And be the guiding light

Life is changing like the dunes

Wandering in the night



Sham Betoch Ha'arafel (over there, inside the fog)

Sham Karov Le'elohim (over there, close to God)

Sham, Sham, Sham Balev (over there, over there, over there in the heart)



Ah - we lay our hearts wide open

Ah - we live mysterious days

Ah - we spell cannot be broken

Ah - we live mysterious days
