Desert Rain - Whistler's Tears Lyrics

Sits all alone
on a rock at the coast
betrayed and misled
vengeance on his mind
searching for eternal oblivion
he'd never forgive them

And to the ground fell the whistler's tears
as he thought about those wasted years
And to the ground fell the whistler's tears
as he thought about those wasted years

When they came to him to ask for help
they promised a big reward for his efforts
but how could he know that they'd cheat him in the end

And to the ground fell the whistler's tears
as he thought about those wasted years
And to the ground fell the whistler's tears
as he thought about those wasted years

So he led the rats into the sea
to release the city from the agony
but when he eventually asked for his gold
they chased him away

but he trusted lies
he fixed a plan to take revenge
to let them bleed for what they had done


So come, my children, I'll guide your way
follow me to my kingdom of hate
leave your families far behind
for damnation is all they'll ever find

And to the ground fell the whistler's tears
as he thought about those wasted years
And to the ground fell the whistler's tears
as he thought about those wasted years...
