(Verse 1)
Whispers on the desert wind, tales of a golden age
A city lost to shifting sands, hidden from history's page
Caravans searched for centuries, for the glint of a distant tower
But only bleached bones and silence marked the sun-baked, empty hour
(Chorus)
El Dorado, a phantom dream, a legend whispered low
A city paved with sunlit gold, where fortune's rivers flow
Lost in the heart of jungles deep, or buried in the dunes
El Dorado, a siren's call, beneath the harvest moon
(Verse 2)
Explorers brave and treasure mad, with maps of faded ink
Followed rumors, chased mirages, on the promise of a brink
Of a city bathed in emerald light, where fountains danced with glee
But found only scorching emptiness, mocking their hearts' decree
(Chorus)
El Dorado, a phantom dream, a legend whispered low
A city paved with sunlit gold, where fortune's rivers flow
Lost in the heart of jungles deep, or buried in the dunes
El Dorado, a siren's call, beneath the harvest moon
(Bridge)
But maybe El Dorado's not a place where riches gleam
Maybe it's a state of mind, a forgotten, joyful dream
The peace within a heart at ease, the love that sets you free
The treasure that no thief can steal, the wealth for you and me
(Chorus)
El Dorado, a phantom dream, a legend whispered low
A city paved with sunlit gold, where fortune's rivers flow
Lost in the heart of jungles deep, or buried in the dunes
El Dorado, a siren's call, beneath the harvest moon

(Outro)
So search within, adventurer, the map lies in your soul
For El Dorado's waiting there, to make you whole
(Outro)
So search within, adventurer, the map lies in your soul
For El Dorado's waiting there, to make you whole
