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
