I used to go with a lovely girl, I haven't seen her for a while;
Lines of laughter in her face from a lovely country smile;
Ilyes came from Budapest where the Danube River flow;
I'd trade away my fondest dreams to know, what we left, on the Plains of Jericho.

I met her in the summertime and the crazy days ran wild;
I swear she borrowed innocence from the face of a newborn child;
Prince of Cups in love with her and man I could not let it show;
I'd trade away my fondest dreams to know, what we left, on the Plains of Jericho.

The last time I saw her I was blind from a hopped-up syringe;
It's hard to tell where one hell stops and the other one begins;
The fools we were stood naked, screaming 'Everybody look out below!'
I'd trade away my fondest dreams to know, what we left, on the Plains of Jericho.
