desert winds of jezebel

winding fury in half-light morning 
desert winds of jezebel, home again 
she will drape the jewels from your praying hands 
entice you to the flawlessness of her homeland 
where the sun-bronzed women come 
come to set the earth afire 
with the powers of their own hands 
they shall run but they shall never tire 
desert winds of jezebel 
bring me home again 
you lift me higher than the night 
and bring me down again 
a mother love so strong 
it tears the tired souls from their graves 
it lifts them higher than the night 
and brings them home again 
you give me hope 
you give me life 
give me your hope 
where the sun-bronzed women come 
come to set the earth afire 
with the powers of their own hands 
they shall run but they shall never tire 
so let the flowers dance and the wild skies rain 
let the great seas give homage 
oh jezebel - i have returned 
a mother love so strong 
it tears the tired souls from their graves 
it lifts them higher than the night 
and brings them home again.
