[Verse 1]
He came dancing across the water
With his galleons and guns
Looking for the new world
And the palace in the sun
On the shore lay Montezuma
With his coca leaves and pearls
In his halls he wondered
With the secrets of the worlds
And his subjects gather 'round him
Like the leaves around a tree
In their clothes of many colors
For their angry gods to see
And the women all were beautiful
And the men stood straight and strong
They offered life in sacrifice
So that others could go on
[Verse 2]
Hate was just a legend
And war was never known
The people worked together
And they lifted many stones
And they carried them to the flatlands
And they died along the way
But they built with their bare hands
What we cannot build today
And I know she's living there
And she loves me to this day
Oh, I still can't remember when
Or how I lost my way
He came dancing across the water
With his galleons and guns
Looking for the new world
And the palace in the sun
On the shore lay Montezuma
With his coca leaves and pearls
In his halls he wondered
With the secrets of the worlds
And his subjects gather 'round him
Like the leaves around a tree
In their clothes of many colors
For their angry gods to see
And the women all were beautiful
And the men stood straight and strong
They offered life in sacrifice
So that others could go on
[Verse 2]
Hate was just a legend
And war was never known
The people worked together
And they lifted many stones
And they carried them to the flatlands
And they died along the way
But they built with their bare hands
What we cannot build today
And I know she's living there
And she loves me to this day
Oh, I still can't remember when
Or how I lost my way
