Take a journey back in time
Leave the western world behind
Cross the mountains to Peking
Where the paper laterns gently swingThe Chinese way
Who knows what they know
The Chinese legend growsMy eyes wide open
I feel a breeze
Words softly spoken
In CantoneseStanding at the master's side
The with patience he confides
Secret knowledge - sacred ways
Paerls of wisdom from the dragon daysI could never lie
For honour I would lie
Following the Chinese waySo many years ago hero's ruled the world
(Some died for love in a cruel world)
They were the only ones in a cruel worldI could never lie
For honour I would lie
Following the Chinese wayFrom the mountains to Peking
Where the paper laterns gently swingThe Chinese way
Who knows what they know
The Chinese legend grows
