Solar Lodge

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
