North Winds Blowing-The Stranglers

I saw an orange road burning I saw a youth on fire I saw metal machines that were turning on A generation that hadn't yet tired I heard of two generations that were Being murdered In a Europe that was shrouded in black I witnessed the birth pains of new nations When the chosen people finally went back North Winds Blowing I wish they'd blow you all away North Winds Blowing I wish they'd blow you all away I saw a freedom in the shape of disease And mainly men had to quench their desire And while a few could do just as they please I saw kid's whose bellies were all on fire And then all is dead and war is over When hollow victory has been won Who will join in the celebration of An evil that can't be undone North Winds Blowing I wish they'd blow you all away North Winds Blowing I wish they'd blow you all away I use to dream about destruction Now that I feel it getting near I spend my time watching the ocean And waves are all I want to hear I wish I was a believer I'd spend less time maybe In being sad So many laws against disbelieving I don't know who's good or who's bad North Winds Blowing Blow all away Blow away
