After The Rain Has Fallen Lyrics - Brand New Day - Sting

The palace guards are all sleeping 

Their fires burn into the night 

There's a threat of rain on the dark horizon 

And all that? s left is a quarter moon of light 

He climbs up through the darkness 

No weapon but his surprise 

The greatest thief in the high Sahara 

Enters the room where a sleeping princess lies 

All your money, your pretty necklace 

This is my work on such a night 

There's a storm coming over the mountain 

I'll be gone long before the morning 

After the rain has fallen 

After the tears have washed your eyes 

You find that I've take nothing, that 

Love can't replace in the blink of an eye

He was as gentle as the night wind 

As no lover had been before 

And the rings she wore for her bride groom 

Slipped from her fingers and fell to the floor 

Take me with you, take me with you 

Before my lonely life is set 

I've been promised to another 

To a man I've never even met 

After the rain has fallen 

After the tears have washed your eyes 

You'll find that I? ve take nothing, that 

Love can't replace in the blink of an eye 

After the thunder's spoken, and 

After the lightning bolt's been hurled 

After the dream is broken, there? ll 

Still be love in the world

She said take me to another life 

Take me for a pirate? s wife 

Take me where the wind blows 

Take me where the red wine flows 

Take me to the danger 

Take me to the life of crime 

Take me to the stars 

Take me to the moon while we still have time 

After the rain has fallen 

After the tears have washed your eyes 

You'll find that I've taken nothing, that 

Love can't replace in the blink of an eye 

After the thunder's spoken, and 

After the lightning bolt's been hurled 

After the dream is broken, there? ll 

Still be love in the world 

Still be love in the world
