Lyrics
Riders in the dark
Male:
This world is far away from me
My hideaway is where the moon withdraws
Echoes of the streets are hard to hear
The wind blows through my restless soul
Some wounds will never heal
My shelter is where the eagle flies
The moon and sun will meet
Far behind the misty hills
Chorus:
I am a stranger in waste land
Like a rider in the dark
Male and female:
We are strangers in waste land
Like riders in the dark
Female:
In my house of ivory
There is a small bed for me
Where I can lay to rest
My name will be written in sand
In case you look for me
You have to sail the restless sea
Were white doves will lead you
To the bed of roses were we`ll meet
Chorus
Guitar solo and repeat
