Strange Light from the East

I see a light shining from the east

Could it be your heart or your love at least?

Are you sitting in your parlor complete?

Sending love a message to me?

Or is your compass, certainly full of hate?

Oh, China don't please me, hear my plea

Oh, China come tell my fortune please

With a cup and saucer under my frown

I felt myself compare to turn round

To see a strange light shining from the east

Now with your silk and your shining hair

Now from your house you are standing there

Will we drink our tea together again?

Will we sink ourselves in cheer again?

Now I see a light shining from the east

I see a light shining from the east

I see a light shining from the east

I see a light shining from the east
