Burning River - Magnum

Sky turned crimson, wild desire

Witches scream your name

On their bloody carousel

Soon to play their game

And your fire will be turned to ice

All your horses returned to mice

By a killer lagoon

On the night of the wayward moon

Never try to cross that burning river

It won’t get you satisfied

Never try to cross that burning river

There’s nothing on the other side

No one to show you and no one to hear

No one to see when you cry

Never try to cross that burning river

Swimming up against the tide

Walking on that scarlet trail

Haunted angels tread

Shrouded by a veil of tears

Many prayers were said

But the magic will disappear

If you visit this dark frontier

And be almost consumed

On the night of the wayward moon

Never try to cross that burning river

It won’t get you satisfied

Never try to cross that burning river

There’s nothing on the other side

No one to show you and no one to hear

No one to see when you cry

Never try to cross that burning river

Swimming up against the tide

And did you know they call you the window man

Looking on as the world goes by

But if you knew the thoughts of a clever man

You would ride on the wings of a blue sky

Never try to cross that burning river

It won’t get you satisfied

Never try to cross that burning river

There’s nothing on the other side

No one to show you and no one to hear

No one to see when you cry

Never try to cross that burning river

Swimming up against the tide

No one to show you and no one to hear

No one to see when you cry

Never try to cross that burning river

Swimming up against the tide
