Artist: Philip Bailey
Track: Walking on the Chinese Wall
Lyrics
Walking on the Chinese
Walking on the Chinese Wall
Watching for the coins to
Watching for the coins to fall
Butterfly spread your painted wings
For an answer from the Ching
By the stream
Stretching in the rocks
Tiger on the mountain-top
Walking on the Chinese Wall
Watching for the coins to fall
Now the sun is rising in the east
Looking for my golden fleece
Ivory skin
Scarlet color deep
Lips that burn but do not speak
Three misty nights waiting by the shore
Maybe that my lover comes no more
Red Chamber Dream from the sky above
Ancient tales of hidden Chinese love
On the Chinese Wall
Watching for the coins to fall
Blue-red silk burning on my chest
Go to sleep but not to rest
Stepping stones on the Yellow sea
Dreaming she'll be there for me
Come down the clouds to the sea of flames
From the mountain hear the cry of pain
Red Chamber Dream from the sky above
Ancient tales of hidden Chinese love
On the Chinese Wall
Watching for the coins to fall
On the Chinese Wall (oh, yeah)
Watching for the coins to fall
On the Chinese Wall (butterfly spread your wings)
For an answer from the Ching, ooh
Watching for the coins to fall (blue-red silk on my chest)
Go to sleep but not to rest, oh no
Walking on the Chinese Wall (on the Chinese Wall)
Walking on the Chinese, walking on the Chinese Wall
(Watching for the coins to fall)
Watching for the coins to fall
Watching for the coins to, watching for the coins to fall
