Duran Duran - Palomino lyrics

watching the strangers drift away

mid-day's ore--thick

with the sun of Arabia

she surrenders her voices

they gather, on the wind

talkin, chanting, breathing

into her body...yesterday

Awakened beside

the scent of burnt sugar--on the skin

painting eyes--thick

with the color she brings in

oh, and sure and strong

when the lightning tumbles down

don't you frown

everything will be

in time for this evening

if there's secrets

she has to be pardoned to

every one of them

if there's heaven

she gets to the heart

and you'll know...

why she says

when I run out of blue

help me rise instead

then I will run to you

why she says

when I run out of blue

give me rain instead

now let me run... (let me run)

if there's secrets

she has to be pardoned to

every one of them

if there's heaven

she gets to the heart

and you'll know...

why she says

when I run out of blue

help me rise instead

then I will run to you

why she says

when I run out of blue

give me rain instead

now let me run... (let me run)

Hey-hey....

why she says

when I run out of blue

help me rise instead

then I will run to you

why she says

when I run out of blue

give me rain instead

then I will run to you
