LEVEL 42 - The Chinese Way lyrics

rate me

Take a journey back in time<br>Leave the western world behind<br>Cross the mountains to peking<br>Where the paper laterns gently swing<br><br>The chinese way<br>Who knows what they know<br>The chinese legend grows<br><br>My eyes wide open<br>I feel a breeze<br>Words softly spoken<br>In cantonese<br><br>Standing at the master's side<br>The with patience he confides<br>Secret knowledge - sacred ways<br>Paerls of wisdom from the dragon days<br><br>I could never lie<br>For honour I would lie<br>Following the chinese way<br><br>So many years ago hero's ruled the world<br>(some died for love in a cruel world)<br>They were the only ones in a cruel world<br><br>I could never lie<br>For honour I would lie<br>Following the chinese way<br><br>From the mountains to peking<br>Where the paper laterns gently swing<br><br>The chinese way<br>Who knows what they know<br>The chinese legend grows
