about

That oriental sounding riff lent the song its title and its lyrical images. It's about rescuing somebody from an unhealthy relationship.

lyrics

I kill the monsters that keep you quiet
Whether flood or drought I brave the dangers
This war you lost yourself in, I save you from the fire
Please take my hand and fulfill my deepest desire

Just let me be the dawn after your darkest nights
Just let me wake you up from your worst dreams

I break the prison that keeps you static
This curse, it has prevailed for much too long
I will protect you from them, the bad ghosts of your past
With me you’ll see the sun again, hope dies last

1001 nights, I was searching for you
40 thieves I would fight, to make this dream come true
Come rub my magic lamp, your wish is my command
May the magic carpet fly us to the promised land

Just let me be the dawn after your darkest nights
Just let me wake you up from your worst dreams

1001 nights, I was searching for you
40 thieves I would fight, to make this dream come true
Come rub my magic lamp, your wish is my command
May the magic carpet fly us to the promised land
