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 theere's no here after -
Time will turn a page
Seal it with a tear -

On the move -
Through the land of shadows
And the setting sun in a biundless range
As the night comes on -
Sing the desert song

Carved in the dark - their city of dreams
Drowed 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
