Sword Of The East Lyrics - Xenon Codex - Hawkwind

A starless night 

Older than death 

The sand dunes of life 

Hold their breath 

My eyes are closed 

Dreaming for you 

The holy wars 

Time will subdue 

Hot desert winds 

Never cease 

Forgive their sins 

Sword of the East

Your swords of steel 

Have turned to guns 

Your desert steed 

Has been outrun 

And now you hide 

Under the night 

To wait for dawn 

To continue the fight 

Hot desert winds 

Never cease 

Forgive their sins 

Sword of the East 

Hot desert winds 

Never cease 

Forgive their sins 

Sword of the East 

Gather up the fallen! 

Photos 

The children you bear 

Are born into war 

Their eyes of despair 

Your generals ignore 

So now you dream 

Of mysterious lands 

Warm blood of the past 

Still flows in the sand 

Hot desert winds 

Never cease 

Forgive their sins 

Sword of the East
