Waiting on this empty street,
Watching the rivers waves go by
Feeling mellow, lighting a cigarette,
Silver moon floats through the night
Eris, Princess of the Isles
Disperse your sparkling traces
Lead him on to the house of love
Where the Gods may turn his eyes
To Jerusalem, we pray - It's time to meet you there
Let's take love to Jerusalem - Oh yeah - let's make love
You might be the one I'm waiting for,
I think we've met somewhere for sure
Chasing shadows leaves you feelin' blue
This situation needs a cure
New assassins, new messiahs,
Keepers of the balanced law
Strangest lovers of the fire
Which ignites the Halo of our souls
In Jerusalem, we pray - It's time to meet you there
Let's take love to Jerusalem - Oh yeah - let's make love
Big yellow Cadillac, carry me back home
On glory roads of pure delight we head out for the stars
In Jerusalem...
Lyrics & Music: Marian Gold, Bernhard Lloyd, Ricky Echolette
