Do Re Mi (Deborah Conway) - "Desert Song" (1988)
Transcript
00:00My Lord, here's a sigh across the ocean
00:2830,000 miles away
00:34Lipping for a twister in the desert
00:39Anywhere where the children play
00:45Red dirt and dust behind their eyes and learning late
00:49They sent the fences blazing, great fire out of the night
00:54Spitting out clouds to the naked day
00:57Summer and the sea will last forever
01:12But I'll never throw away
01:16Crawling from the shelter of the evening
01:21Spinning down upon the day
01:24And once in forty days and nights they sang to scream
01:29They took the boys away she'd watched them leave my request playing
01:33Swarling around and back again
01:36Not here, I know what's to blame
01:42It's lovely faces when they open down the flame
01:47And all the headlines say, well, isn't it a shame
01:53Just one more, there's a song
01:56Sister, past the night in the horizon
02:011,300 miles away
02:04This song, for the sound of the moment's coming
02:09Every night and every day
02:13She stands in virginity
02:14She stands in virginity
02:15She walks and sleeps
02:17The sun sends mercy down
02:19And drives the tears of no peace
02:22Casting shadows around and deep
02:28Not here, I know what's to blame
02:31They set the fences and they open down the flame
02:35Cause the heaven's saying, well, isn't it a shame?
02:39Just one more, there's a song of the game
02:42Just one more, there's a song of the game
02:46Just one more, there's a song of the name
02:47Actually, I don't see the sorrows
02:56This time a lot of the time
02:59She ranks high
02:59dressed up and proteges
03:01She is a song of the world
03:02And finds out.
03:05This time a lot
03:07Of the Grandma
03:10Come on
03:12Oh, my God.
