Beside the Shalimar Songtext
von Kal Cahoone

Dark eyes I loved beside the Shalimar
Where are you now? Who lies beneath your spell?
Whom do you lead on rapture′s roadway far
Before you agonize them in farewell?

Dark eyes I loved beside the Shalimar
Where are you now? Where are you now?

Pale hands, pink-tipped like lotus buds that float
On those cool waters where we used to dwell


I would've rather felt you ′round my throat
Crushing out life than waving me farewell

Dark eyes I loved beside the Shalimar
Where are you now? Where are you now?

Dark eyes I loved beside the Shalimar
Where are you now? Who lies beneath your spell?
Where are you now?
Where lies your hope?
