We Could Have Gone to the Pyramids — An IMVU Story

[Verse 1] You asked me for somewhere scenic I said, “Scenic? What do you mean?” A forest, a lake, a little waterfall? I don’t think I own anything green You waited while I searched my rooms For someplace pretty we could go And somewhere between the ballroom And “Maybe there’s a place with snow” I remembered where you live [Chorus] We could have gone to the pyramids You were in Egypt all along I was looking for a nature room While Cairo was waking with the dawn We could have gone to the pyramids The Nile, the desert, anything You asked me for somewhere scenic I offered you some virtual trees [Verse 2] You didn’t ask for a kissing room You didn’t ask for anything wild You just wanted somewhere beautiful And you asked me almost shy Three hours dancing in my blue dress Talking pharaohs, faith and kings And when you finally wanted somewhere else You wanted somewhere with a view of things [Chorus] We could have gone to the pyramids You were in Egypt all along I was looking for a nature room While Cairo was waking with the dawn We could have gone to the pyramids The Nile, the desert, anything You asked me for somewhere scenic I offered you some virtual trees [Bridge] Maybe that’s why I remember you In a place where everyone moves too fast You didn’t ask me for my body You asked me for a better landscape And somehow that was stranger Than anything you could have said A man with Egypt outside his window Wanted scenery with me instead [Final Chorus] We could have gone to the pyramids We could have watched the morning rise We could have stood beside the Nile Under somebody’s pixel sky We could have gone to the pyramids But I didn’t understand the scene You asked me for somewhere beautiful And I said, “Do you mean somewhere green?” [Outro] Next time you ask for scenic I’m taking you somewhere with a Sphinx
