Desert Song lyrics - Def Leppard song

(Clark/Elliott/Savage)

Dark and dirty
like you have never seen
a mind so twisted
with thoughts so unclean.
My heart is racing
all tattered and torn
I stand here naked
as the day I was born.
Over and over I stand
I'm holding the world in my hand
I got to believe

The sky is falling
on this setting son
Echoes of silence
ringing loud and long
This isolation
is the king of pain
A lost horizon
in an ocean of flames

Only the lonely will stand
I'm holding the world in my hand
I got to believe

Bridge:
I've been here before,
but not as I stand here today
I wait for the dawn
ready to walk
into the light
