Lyrics:

Roman land Of Roman sands And Roman sons. As I watch the sun sink down On the bloodred edge Of the bloodred town There are shadows for sale On the edge of town At the edge of the night Is a darkness seen From the side of the light (From the side of the night). And the winds blow round this sleeping town This sleeping town This Roman land Of Roman sands And Roman sons. And it seems to me That when I close my eyes All the lights in the world Go out And the night passes by And you whisper to me A thousand lies I stare in surprise Towards the desert's warm black And the desert stirs And the desert stares back With a thousand eyes Piercing eyes Ancient eyes And I ask my lover
