Текст песни:

I dream of rain
I dream of gardens in the desert sand
I wake in pain
I dream of love as time runs through my hand

I dream of fire
These dreams are tied to a horse that will never tire
And in the flames
Her shadows play in the shape of a man′s desire

This desert rose
Each of her veils, a secret promise
This desert flower
No sweet perfume ever tortured me more than this

And as she turns
This way she moves in the logic of all my dreams
This fire burns
I realise that nothing′s as it seems

I dream of rain
I dream of gardens in the desert sand
I wake in pain
I dream of love as time runs through my hand

I dream of rain
I lift my gaze to empty skies above
I close my eyes, this rare perfume
Is the sweet intoxication of her love

I dream of rain
I dream of gardens in the desert sand
I wake in pain
I dream of love as time runs through my hand

Sweet desert rose
Each of her veils, a secret promise
This desert flower
No sweet perfume ever tortured me more than this

Sweet desert rose
This memory of Eden haunts us all
This desert flower, this rare perfume
Is the sweet intoxication of the love

Текст песни:

When you′re down and they′re counting
When your secrets all found out
When your troubles take to mounting
When the map you have leads you to doubt
When there′s no information
And the compass turns to nowhere that you know well
Let your soul be your pilot
Let your soul guide you
He′ll guide you well

When the doctors failed to heal you
When no medicine chest can make you well
When no counsel leads to comfort
When there are no more lies they can tell
No more useless information
And the compass spins
The compass spins between heaven and hell
Let your soul be your pilot
Let your soul guide you
He′ll guide you well

And your eyes turn towards the window pane
To the lights upon the hill
The distance seems so strange to you now
And the dark room seems so still

Let your pain be my sorrow
Let your tears be my tears too
Let your courage be my model
That the north you find will be true
When there′s no more useless information
And the compass turns to nowhere that you know well
Let your soul be your pilot
Let your soul guide you
Let your soul guide you
Let your soul guide you upon your way

Текст песни:

Well in a hundred years from now
They will attempt to tell us how
A scientific means to bliss
Will supercede the human kiss

A sub atomic chain
Will maybe galvanize the brain
A biochemic trance
Will eliminate romance

But why ever should we care
When there are arrows in the air
Formed by lovers′ ancient art
That go straight to my heart

A future sugar coated pill
Would give our lovers time to kill
I think they′re working far too much
For the redundancy of touch

But what will make me yours
Are a million deadly spores
Formed by lovers′ ancient art
That go straight to my heart

Come into my door
Be the light of my life
Come into my door

You′ll never have to sweep the floor
Come into my door
Be the light of my life
Come into my door
Come and be my wife
I′ll be true. To no one but you

If it′s a future world we fear
We have tomorrow′s seeds right here
For you can hold them in your hand
Or let them fall into the sand

But if our love is pure
The only thing of which we′re sure
Then you can play your part
And go straight to my heart

If I should seek immunity
And love you with impunity
Then the only thing to do
Is for me to pledge myself to you

But they only dealt one card
So for me it is not hard
You′re the bright star in my chart
You go straight to my heart

Come into my door
Be the light of my life
Come into my door
You′ll never have to sweep the floor
Come into my door
Be the light of my life
Come into my door
Come and be my wife
I′ll be true. To no one but you

Текст песни:

Lay my head on the surgeon′s table
Take my fingerprints if you are able
Pick my brains pick my pockets
Steal my eyeballs and come back for the sockets
Run every kind of test from A to Z
And you′ll still know nothing ′bout me

Run my name though your computer
Mention me in passing to your college tutor
Check my records check my facts
Check if I paid my income tax
Pore over everything in my C.V.
But you′ll still know nothing ′bout me
You′ll still know nothing ′bout me

You don′t need to read no books on my history
I′m a simple man, it′s no big mystery
In the cold weather, a hand needs a glove
At times like this, a lonely man like me needs love

Search my house with a fine tooth comb
Turn over everything ′cause I won′t be at home
Set up your microscope and tell me what you see
You′ll still know nothing ′bout me

@ Sting

Текст песни:

Fill my eyes
O Lithium sunset
And take this lonesome burden
Of worry from my mind

Take this heartache
Of obsidian darkness
And fold my darkness
Into your yellow light

I′ve been scattered I′ve been shattered
I′ve been knocked out of the race
But I′ll get better
I feel your light upon my face

Heal my soul
O Lithium sunset
And I′ll ride the turning world
Into another night

See mercury falling

@ Sting

Текст песни:

Why are there women here dancing on their own?
Why is there this sadness in their eyes?
Why are the soldiers here
Their faces fixed like stone?
I can′t see what it is that they dispise
They′re dancing with the missing
They′re dancing with the dead
They dance with the invisible ones
Their anguish is unsaid
They′re dancing with their fathers
They′re dancing with their sons
They′re dancing with their husbands
They dance alone They dance alone

It′s the only form of protest they′re allowed
I′ve seen their silent faces scream so loud
If they were to speak these words they′d go missing too
Another woman on a torture table what else can they do
They′re dancing with the missing
They′re dancing with the dead
They dance with the invisible ones
Their anguish is unsaid
They′re dancing with their fathers
They′re dancing with their sons
They′re dancing with their husbands
They dance alone They dance alone

One day we′ll dance on their graves
One day we′ll sing our freedom
One day we′ll laugh in our joy
And we′ll dance
One day we′ll dance on their graves
One day we′ll sing our freedom
One day we′ll laugh in our joy
And we′ll dance

Ellas danzan con los desaparecidos
Ellas danzan con los muertos
Ellas danzan con amores invisibles
Ellas danzan con silenciosa angustia
Danzan con sus pardres
Danzan con sus hijos
Danzan con sus esposos
Ellas danzan solas
Danzan solas

Hey Mr. Pinochet
You′ve sown a bitter crop
It′s foreign money that supports you
One day the money′s going to stop
No wages for your torturers
No budget for your guns
Can you think of your own mother
Dancin′ with her invisible son
They′re dancing with the missing
They′re dancing with the dead
They dance with the invisible ones
They′re anguish is unsaid
They′re dancing with their fathers
They′re dancing with their sons
They′re dancing with their husbands
They dance alone They dance alone

Текст песни:

You′ll remember me when the west wind moves
Upon the fields of barley
You′ll forget the sun in his jealous sky
As we walk in fields of gold

So she took her love
For to gaze awhile
Upon the fields of barley
In his arms she fell as her hair came down
Among the fields of gold

Will you stay with me, will you be my love
Among the fields of barley
We′ll forget the sun in his jealous sky
As we lie in fields of gold

See the west wind move like a lover so
Upon the fields of barley
Feel her body rise when you kiss her mouth
Among the fields of gold

I never made promises lightly
And there have been some that I′ve broken
But I swear in the days still left
We′ll walk in fields of gold
We′ll walk in fields of gold

Many years have passed since those summer days
Among the fields of barley
See the children run as the sun goes down
Among the fields of gold

You′ll remember me when the west wind moves
Upon the fields of barley
You can tell the sun in his jealous sky
When we walked in fields of gold
When we walked in fields of gold
When we walked in fields of gold

Текст песни:

Well she′s walking through the clouds
with a circus mind
that′s running wild.
Butterflies and zebras and moonbeams
and fairy tales

That′s all she ever thinks about...

Riding the wind.

When I′m sad she comes to me
with a thousand smiles
she gives to me free

It′s alright she says
it′s alright
Take anything you want from me
anything

Fly on little wing

@ Sting

Текст песни:

Mercury falling
I rise from my bed
Collect my thoughts together
I have to hold my head
It seems that she′s gone
And somehow I am pinned by
The Hounds of Winter
Howling in the wind

I walk through the day
My coat around my ears
I look for my companion
I have to dry my tears
It seems that she′s gone
Leaving me too soon
I′m as dark as December
I′m as cold as the Man in the Moon

I still see her face
As beautiful as day
It′s easy to remember
Remember my love that way
All I hear is that lonesome sound
The Hounds of Winter
They follow me down

I can′t make up the fire
The way that she could
I spend all my days
In the search for dry wood
Board all the windows and close the front door
I can′t believe she won′t be here anymore

I still see her face
As beautiful as day
It′s easy to remember
Remember my love that way
All I hear is that lonesome sound
The Hounds of Winter
They follow me down

A season for joy
A season for sorrow
Where she′s gone
I will surely, surely follow
She brightened my day
She warmed the coldest night
The Hounds of Winter
They got me in their sights

I still see her face
As beautiful as day
It′s easy to remember
Remember my love that way
All I hear is that lonesome sound
The Hounds of Winter
They harry me down

@ Sting

Текст песни:

Under the ruins of a walled city
Crumbling towers in beams of yellow light
No flags of truce, no cries of pity
the siege guns had been pounding through the night

It took a day to build the city
We walked through its streets in the afternoon
As I returned across the fields I′d known
I recognized the walls that I once made
Had to stop in my tracks for fear
Of walking on the mines I′d laid

And if I built this fortress around your heart
Encircled you in trenches and barbed wire
Then let me build a bridge, for I cannot fill the chasm
And let me set the battlements on fire

Then I went off to fight some battle
That I′d invented inside my head
Away so long for years and years
You probably thought or even wished that I was dead

While the armies are all sleeping
Beneath that tattered flag we′d made
I had to stop in my tracks for fear
Of walking on the mines I′d laid

And if I built this fortress around your heart
Encircled you in trenches and barbed wire
Then let me build a bridge, for I cannot fill the chasm
And let me set the battlements on fire

The prison has now become your home
a sentence you seem prepared to pay
It took a day to build the city
We walked through its streets in the afternoon
As I returned across the lands I′d known
I recognized the fields where I once played
I had to stop in my tracks for fear
Of walking on the mines I′d laid

And if I built this fortress around your heart
Encircled you in trenches and barbed wire
Then let me build a bridge, for I cannot fill the chasm
And let me set the battlements on fire

Текст песни:

This is a story of seven brothers
We had a the same father but different mothers
We keep together like a family should
Roaming the country for the common good
It came to pass one fateful day
We found ourselves down Mexico way
The town the mayor the PTA
Pleading on their knees with us all to stay
We′d only stopped for a few burritos
But they told us of the trouble with los banditos
A poor little town in need of aid
My brothers and me had never been afraid
The age of chivalry is not dead
Lonesome nights in a cowboy bed
There′d be a bride for every man
Who chased away the evil gang

Love is stronger than justice
Love is thicker than blood
Love is is stronger than justice
Love is a big fat river in flood

The outcome was predictable
Our banditos were despicable
Of blood we lost a dozen litres
A small price to pay for las senoritas
The town mayor was happy but his face was glum
The maidens numbered only one
But there weren′t seven brides for seven brothers
I knew I had to get rid of the others

Love is stronger than justice
Love is thicker than blood
Love is stronger than justice
Love is the big fat river in flood

Mother told me I was the clever one
The seventh son of a seventh son
It all ended so happily
I settled down with the family
I look forward to a better day
But ethical stuff never got in my way
And though there used to be brothers seven
The other six are singing in heaven

Love is stronger than justice
Love is thicker than blood
Love is stronger than justice
Love is a big fat river in flood

Текст песни:

He looked beneath his shirt today
There was a wound in his flesh so deep and wide
From the wound a lovely flower grew
From somewhere deep inside
He turned around to face his mother
To show her the wound in his breast that burned like a brand
But the sword that cut him open
Was the sword in his mother′s hand

Every day another miracle
Only death will tear us apart
To sacrifice a life for yours
I′d be the blood of the Lazarus heart
The blood of the Lazarus heart

Though the sword was his protection
The wound itself would give him power
The power to remake himself
at the time of his darkest hour
She said the wound would give him courage and pain
The kind of pain that you can′t hide
From the wound a lovely flower grew
From somewhere deep inside

Every day another miracle
Only death will keep us apart
To sacrifice a life for yours
I′d be the blood of the Lazarus heart
The blood of the Lazarus heart

Birds on the roof of my mother′s house
I′ve no stones that chase them away
Birds on the roof of my mother′s house
Will sit on my roof someday
They fly at the window, they fly at the door
Where does she get the strength to fight them anymore
She counts all her children as a shield against the rain
Lifts her eyes to the sky like a flower to the rain

Every day another miracle
Only death will keep us apart
To sacrifice a life for yours
I′d be the blood of the Lazarus heart
The blood of the Lazarus heart

Текст песни:

E amanha a chuva levara
O sangue que a luta deixou derramar
Na pele a dor do aco tao cruel
Jamais a nossa voz vai calar

Um ato assim pode acabar
Com uma vida e nada mais
Porque nem mesmo a violencia
Destroi ideais
Tem gente que nao sente que o mundo assim
Ficara fragil demais

Choro eu e voce
E o mundo tambem, E o mundo tambem
Choro eu e voce
Que fragilidade, que fragilidade

@ Sting

Текст песни:

In the empire of the senses
You′re the queen of all you survey
All the cities all the nations
Everything that falls your way
There is a deeper world than this
That you don′t understand
There is a deeper world than this
Tugging at your hand

Every ripple on the ocean
Every leaf on every tree
Every sand dune in the desert
Every power we never see
There is a deeper wave than this
Swelling in the world
There is a deeper wave than this
Listen to me girl

Feel it rising in the cities
Feel it sweeping over land
Over borders, over frontiers
Nothing will its power understand
There is a deeper wave than this
Rising in the world
There is no deeper wave than this
Listen to me girl

All the bloodshed all the anger
All the weapons all the greed
All the armies all the missiles
All the symbols of our fear
There is a deeper wave than this
Rising in the world
There is a deeper wave than this
Listen to me girl

At the still point of destruction
At the centre of the fury
All the angels all the devils
All around us can′t you see
There is a deeper wave than this
Rising in the land
There is a deeper wave than this
Nothing will understand

I say love is the seventh wave
I say love is the seventh wave

Текст песни:

Sometimes in the light at the edge of the world
Is the ghost of a ship with it′s black sail furled
And night after night she would stand on the shore
And dream of the love that she knew before

The tide rolls out, the tide rolls in
Without a thought for the ways of men

We set sail for the Spanish Main
To rob the ships of the Queen of Spain
And she would be his pirate′s bride
She gave him the pistol and the sword at his side

The tide rolls out, the tide rolls in
Without a care for the ways of men
I′d give three ships of Spanish gold
To see my love again

Full fathom five my true love lies
In a fine wooden casket with gold on his eyes
Where is the glory and where is the pride?
Where is the joy for the pirate′s bride?

The tide rolls out, the tide rolls in
Without a care for the ways of men

Here in the light at the edge of the world
He′d wait for a ship with it′s black sail furled
And day after day he would stand on the shore
And dream of the life that they knew before

The tide rolls out, the tide rolls in
Without a care for the ways of men
I′d give three ships of Spanish gold
To see my love again

Текст песни:

If blood will flow when flesh and steel are one
Drying in the colour of the evening sun
Tomorrow′s rain will wash the stains away
But something in our minds will always stay

Perhaps this final act was meant
To clinch a lifetime′s argument
That nothing comes from violence
and nothing ever could
For all those born beneath an angry star
Lest we forget how fragile we are

On and on the rain will fall
Like tears from a star
Like tears from a star
On and on the rain will say
How fragile we are
How fragile we are

On and on the rain will fall
Like tears from a star
Like tears from a star
On and on the rain will say
How fragile we are
How fragile we are
How fragile we are
How fragile we are
