Aladdin's Lamp - Al Jarreau

Just beside the door

The bold and certain hand

That turned the dragons trembled

He touched the Holy Lamp

And faintly saw his feet

And just beside the door

His pure uncertain tears

The burden fell so tender

And in the darkest night a

Rose grew by his feet

Stand beside me now

I've been in your place

And you've been in mine

And the only difference

Is our space and time

And the only light is

Somehow in the lamp

That's at your feet

Why can't you see

But ain't it high

Ain't holy when you see

And it's just times when

I'm weary worries me

Don't you know how Aladdin's

Lamp guards the night

Ten thousand clandles beam

The silver stream you're

Searching for
