Electric Light Orchestra - Eldorado Lyrics

Artist: Electric Light Orchestra

Album: Eldorado

  • Songwriters: Jeff Lynne

Here it comes, another lonely day, playin' the game
I sail away on a voyage of no return
To see, if eternal life is meant to be
And if I find the key to the eternal dream

The painted ladies of the Avalon play in the sun
Take to the road, to the North there lies the chills of cold
To the South there lies the tales untold
Oh, but in between there lies the place to close your eyes

And I will stay, I'll not be back, Eldorado
I will be free of the world, Eldorado

Say goodbye, the city's heroes sing, bird on the wing
Feel, feel so free through the life upon the rooftop haze
All the cheatin' and the broken days
So through it all I see, there's nothin' left for me

So I will stay, I'll not be back, Eldorado
I will be free of the world, Eldorado

Sittin' here on top of everywhere, what do I care
Days never end, all the voyage's end will soon be here
No eternal life is here for me
Oh, but now I found the key to the eternal dream

And I will stay, I'll not be back, Eldorado
I will be free of the world, Eldorado

And I will stay, I'll not be back, Eldorado
