Santa Ana Winds Lyrics - The Definitive Collection - Survivor

When the wind decides that it's time to ride 

To spread a little hell through the heartland 

It takes a good long toke then it blows the smoke 

Through the desert night 

And the wings of fire keep climbin' higher 

Flames cuttin' hard through the homeland 

Takes a mighty strong will to strip the chill 

From the desert night 

You're wakened from your dream by a siren's scream 

Trapped by the walls that surround you 

Then it's will to will and you wonder still 

Can you struggle free?

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

In a thousand ways, when you turn the phrase 

The wind's like a love of a woman 

It takes a mighty mean bitch, some fire witch 

To set the night on fire 

And the Santa Ana wind's gonna have its way, tonight 

Nothing you can do's gonna change her mind 

And ain't it a lot like love the way desire takes you in 

And stokes the fire like the Santa Ana wind 

Now the air is calm and the heart grows numb 

The ashes burn low in the heartland 

'Til again the wind starts closin' in 

To set the night on fire 

And the Santa Ana wind's blowin' cross my heart, tonight 

Nothing you can do's gonna change her mind 

And woman, I want your love, I need that passion deep within 

Like the ragin' fire needs the Santa Ana wind

And the Santa Ana wind's gonna take your life tonight 

Nothing you can do's gonna change her mind 

And ain't it a lot like love, the way desire takes you in 

Swept away with the Santa Ana wind
