winding fury in half-light morning 

desert winds of jezebel, home again 

she will drape the jewels from your praying hands 

entice you to the flawlessness of her homeland 

where the sun-bronzed women come 

come to set the earth afire 

with the powers of their own hands 

they shall run but they shall never tire 

desert winds of jezebel 

bring me home again 

you lift me higher than the night 

and bring me down again 

a mother love so strong 

it tears the tired souls from their graves 

it lifts them higher than the night 

and brings them home again 

you give me hope 

you give me life 

give me your hope 

where the sun-bronzed women come 

come to set the earth afire 

with the powers of their own hands 

they shall run but they shall never tire 

so let the flowers dance and the wild skies rain 

let the great seas give homage 

oh jezebel - i have returned 

a mother love so strong 

it tears the tired souls from their graves 

it lifts them higher than the night 

and brings them home again.
