Lyrics
STEELY BLUE
Verse 1
No one really knows who you are
Or the secrets you keep locked behind those private eyes
And I could never see that far
I?m blinded, blinded by? Your perfect disguise,
Sahara?s in your eyes of Steely Blue
You?re divin? through those skies
Of dreams come true
The wind she laughs and cries?
For Steely Blue.
Verse 2
Tales of adventure in far away lands
Won?t keep you far away from life?s demands.
Will you bury your heart in some new foreign war
Will fighting help you find what you?re looking for,
Sahara?s in your eyes of Steely Blue
You?ve been divin? through those skies
Of dreams come true
The wind she laughs and cries?
For Steely Blue.
Bridge:
Days of longing, Dreams of love
Fortune seems so far above
Catch the ring, As you float by
Your canopy on that desert sky -
That?s Steely Blue - Stretch those lines!
You can make your dreams come true,
They are right in front of you? Steely Blue - Steely Blue.
Verse 3
Desert North wind, ?Shimal?, knows your name
She?s calling you to come back To her home again
And I would follow you there,
I would follow you - anywhere...
Steely Blue - Stretch those lines!
You can make your dreams come true,
I am right in front of you?
Steely Blue.. Steely Blue.
