Girl From The Wadi Hammamat Lyrics - Pogues

Sometimes it seems like a beautiful dream 

The girl from the Wadi Hammamat 

Lovely as a green parakeet 

I awoke alone again 

In the desert of my dreams 

A fertile oasis I have seen 

I cast my voice to the burning winds 

Across the dunes, Khamsin Khamsin 

Bring her to me on desire's wings 

On the burning desert wind 

She means the world to me 

In a single grain of sand 

Bring a camel to this man 

Perched on a bough her tresses hang down 

The girl from the Wadi Hammamat 

She is as sweet as a green parakeet 

I cast my voice to the burning winds 

Across the dunes, Khamsin Khamsin 

Bring her to me on desire's wings 

On the burning desert wind 

Sometimes, it seems like a beautiful dream 

The girl from the Wadi Hammamat 

The girl from the Wadi Hammamat 

The girl from the Wadi Hammamat 

Sometimes it seems like a beautiful dream 

Sometimes it seems like a beautiful dream 

Sometimes it seems like a beautiful dream 

Sometimes it seems like a beautiful dream
