Sphynx Lyrics - Eloy

surpassed celestial gates of light 

I left the worldly spheres behind 

into atmospheres unknow 

to the planet of silence 

ancient tales have told 

of sphinx on his throne 

create an aura unique 

his superior mind doesn't need 

space or time 

pass through rooms of now and past 

and leave the future way behind 

move through dimensions unexplained palace of eternity 

Wisdom's books I search 

in these temples of sphynx 

pyramids of peace meaningless time 

no such thing as time 

quetly trace him slowly 

and finally I confront him 

he silently gazes with a piercing look 

I'm overpowered, and struck by anxiety 

his charisma enlightns me 

his eyes tell tales I couldn't see 

sphinx is superior to my fate 

he motions me, though no word is said 

one last glance he turns away and he spreads his wings 

slowly rising soars up to the heights 

the brightest star yet seen comes into sight 

ancient tales have told of sphinx on his throne 

create an aura unique his superior mind 

doesn't need space or time
