DESERT SONG
Refugees – homeless and bare Out in the endless sands Sunburned faces – eyes of despair Searching the promised land And a nameless sorrow – Way deep inside their souls If there's no tomorrow – Nothing will remain No one ever knows – As they move – Through the land of shadow And the setting sun in a boundless range As the night comes on With the desert song There were times of justice and peace Or was it just a dream Golden ages – joyful and free So far away it seems But the sound of laughter – Still ringing in their ears If there's no hereafter – Time will turn a page Seal it with a tear – On the move – Through the land of shadows And the setting sun in a boundless range As the night comes on – Sing the desert song Carved in the dark – their city of dreams Drowned in the baseless sands Gardens of life – abandoned and bare Turned to deserted land Out on the fields of night Stormwinds begin to rise Out on the run With the desert song |
