Off to Egypt

I’m a lion in the desert
I’m a lion on a chart
I run through the equator
I’d point straight to the center of your heart
I’m a lion, I’m a lion
But I’ve tasted the time, and I can’t wait much longer
'Til I’m all dressed in white and I see your delight
And I finally belong to you
I’m off to Egypt
I’ll sing to the mere winter sun
I’ll tell the ash of the phoenix
New life has finally come
I moved to Egypt
I’m the rivers of Eden
I’m the fruit on her trees
I have long been forbidden
But now you make take as you please
I’m a river and I’ll deliver
This hairy man from the sun and the sand
I’m a garden, but I am just starting
And you, you will tend me with your leathern hands
I’m off to Egypt
I’ll sing to the mere winter sun
I’ll tell the ash of the phoenix
New life has finally come
I’m off to Egypt
I’ll swim across the Salt Sea
And then I will stand in the wilderness
I will blossom and turn to green
I’m off to Egypt
I’m a bone from your body
I’m the light in your eyes
I’m a crown of glory
I’m the palace you’re living inside
I’m a bone, a crown, and a throne
I’m the garden that’s grown and the fruit of your hands
I’m the Red Sea that rows
Made a path so you’d go through the waters on dry land, and
I’m off to Egypt
I’ll sing to the mere winter sun
I’ll tell the ash of the phoenix
New life has finally come
I’m off to Egypt
I’ll swim across the Salt Sea
And then I will stand in the wilderness
I will blossom and turn to green
I’m off to Egypt
