Dreams are flying like an eagle
To the orinoco flow
From the desert of Eldorado
To the east coast, yes I know

A heart of gold, and she's alone
Garden Eden is her home
She's like a storm, she's like a star
You think she's near, but she so far
She's like the sun in wintertime
She's hard to find

She's the witch queen of Eldorado
High on the mountain, heya heya heya hoh
For the freedom in Eldorado
She's the fountain, heya heya heya hoh
She's the witch queen of Eldorado
Lady of fire - heya heya heya heya hoh
And she fighting for Eldorado
With her desire - heya heya heya heya hoh

She is warming frozen roses - gives you dreams
Money can't buy - in the desert of Eldorado
All your dreams will learn to you

She's justified in wounded knee
Some lies are true, oh can't you see
Follow the sun, and you will find
A secret room, just in your mind
Let's make this world, a better place
For the human race

Love can move the greatest mountain
And all your love comes back to you
In the desert of Eldorado
Oh some dreams are coming true

Walk on water - walk on fire
The wind must come, from somewhere
In the desert of Eldorado
There is the answer, oh take care
