You are so majestic, regal, and refined as you have guarded the Valley of the Kings for a long long time I have learned they say you could be ten thousand years old You standing here in all your glory in a desert that in as silent as a mime Your purpose over time has never been defined, as you stand in the sun shimmering on the desert sand that at times looks like gold. No one knows who had the ancient expertise to build you If only you could talk, I wonder what secrets would be told You stood here as the pyramids were built, holding up your head so proud and true I bet if you could talk, all the secrets you hold you could virtually explode. You saw ancient Egyptians in their every day life You saw Napoleon and others as they rode by You saw the ancients, their life, their death, and every day strife To figure you out the greatest scholars have tried. I bet you could tell us who built you, if you could only talk The secrets of the ancients and those of all times could be ours Did you instill fear into those that would dare defy you, the guardian, oh, if only you could talk. Were you once worshiped by a cult we know nothing of? Still today we are trying to figure out why you are here Head of a pharaoh, body of a lion which signifies your strength, I bet you were worshiped and loved Oh, if you could talk, then, everything would be very clear. |
