Lyrics

We lived outside the law We struck with wild desire We blinded all we saw We made the sun our fire But now a line's been crossed Our intuition lost Where yellow orchids bloomed The land is scorched and doomed We were both here and gone We rode with cruel deceit We took the moon at dawn The stars fell at our feet But now the die's been cast Our vision fading fast Where rivers ran with gold The fields are black and cold Darkness falls through the banyan tree Beating wings of no birds Waves of loneliness break on me In the sound of no words But now the night's gone dead The hours filled with dread Where blue magnolias laid The colors twist and fade We lived outside the law We struck with wild desire We blinded all we saw We made the sun our fire We made the sun our fire We made the sun our fire
