Slur lyrics

Roman land
Of Roman sands
And Roman sons

As I watch the sun sink down
On the blood-red edge of the blood-red town
There are shadows for sale
On the edge of town
On the edge of the night
Is a darkness seen
From the side of the night
(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
(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
(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
(And the desert stares back)
With a thousand eyes
Piercing eyes
Ancient eyes
(Ancient eyes)

And I ask my lovers, "Do you know
Where the desert roses bloom and grow?"
And I ask my lovers, "Do you know
Where the desert roses bloom and grow?"
And I ask my lovers, "Do you know
Where the desert roses bloom and grow?"
