lyrics

White Feathers
c 1994 (Turner)

You're a desert Lion
Warrior without a tribe
And a sense of pride
Gets you into trouble
Judging by the times
You've laid down your life

For the desert Lion
Feeds your fascinated heart
With a sense of wonder
Love's the noble savage
If you knew the truth

Side by side
The clashing swords collide
You're fighting for the glory
Night and day
Some fall, some live to tell
A never ending story

You're a desert Lion
Dashing blue white arab's son
With a will of iron
Renegade they call you
Fighting the good fight
You're out of your mind

These are desperate times
Their country is inflamed with war.
And you're on the wrong side
Thinking you're so right
When you're fighting the good fight

Side by side
The clashing swords collide
You're fighting for the glory
Night and day
Some fall, some live to tell
A never ending story

You knew exactly what you had to do
When you left home
You knew the goal
It was all down to you
Was yours alone
White Feathers will never break your bones
But they will kill you in the end
White Feathers from four friends

You knew they'd have to take them back from you
And eat their words
You knew the fault it was all down to you
And that much hurt
But the deepest cut that hurts
Your heart, will kill you in the end
And white feathers from four friends

You knew of everything you'd have to do
When you left home
You knew the goal
It was all down to you
Was yours alone
White Feathers will never break your bones
But they will kill you in the end
White Feathers from four friends

You're a desert legend
Bedouins will call your name
And they pray their Ummah
To send you back to save
The fighting of the hoards
From out of the West.

But you're dead and gone
Legend's all that's left behind
Just a desert song
Some, they wish to love you
Fighting the good fight.

Side by side
The clashing swords collide
You're fighting for the glory
Night and day
Some fall, some live to tell
A never ending story
