They came 500 years ago
They stole the gold of 
MexicoKilled the people one by one
Only talking with their guns
Brave men locked on iron chains
All young mothers sold as slaves
Babies crying through the night
Will they ever see a light
Golden dreams of 
EldoradoAll have drowned in seas of pain and blood
Golden dreams of 
EldoradoMay come true but only in your heart
Reach out your hands and you'll be free
Then we shall live in liberty
Oh, will mankind ever learn
Shall the whole world die and burn
Golden dreams of 
EldoradoAll have drowned in seas of pain and blood
Golden dreams of 
EldoradoMay come true but only in your heart
Within the memory of man
The search for happiness has never ended
But the gates of 
Eden will ever be closed
For those conquitadores who are only hungry
For power and might
Because the real 
EldoradoIsn't made out of diamonds and gold
It's the immortal yearning
For peace, love and understanding
In the hearts of everyone
Golden dreams of 
EldoradoAll have drowned in seas of pain and blood
Golden dreams of 
EldoradoMay come true but only in your heart
