Vikings

Fire's burning in the desert light Shine tonight, make everything alright On the breeze in the evening's twilight Brings your song into my mind's eye It burns bright in the night Violins step into the light Shining white, my eyes have seen The coming of the glory Long ships drift beyond the horizon The fog's inside my mind Wind in the sails, on through the gales The storm's crashing over me Is it cruel to be kind, when you're losing your mind Somewhere off in the distance Oh, wolf as it howls, alone in the night Crushes me to the ground Oh, show me the way to the next whiskey bar And, Lord, don't ask why Not tonight It's not what they told me It's not what I've heard It's not the vision they sold me It's the end of the world It's the end of the world It's the end of my world
