(From The 1992 Album Break Like The Wind)
Intro
Verse 1
I Ride Cross The Desert On My Camel
Over Hills Of Sand
What's That, I See In The Distance?
Only Hills Of Sand
There Is No Oasis In Sight
I'll Have To Ride Through The Night
If I'm To Make Baghdad By Light Of Dawn
Interlude
Verse 2
The Sun's Not Your Friend In The Desert
Like He Is At Home
The Wind Has A Name In The Desert (Sirocco)
But It's Barely Known, Rarely Known
It's Only The Hardiest Bloom
That Can Blossom In Darkest Khartoum
So I Will Just Stay In My Room, Tonight
Sitar Solo
Verse 3
The Desert Isn't Free With Her Secrets
She's A Silent Bird, Quiet Bird
I Asked The Sphinx For The Answer
It Said, "Mums The Word"
So I'll Catch The Zanzibar Train
And Sleep Till I'm Wakened By Rain
And I'm Back In Old England Again Once More
