Artist/Band: Stranglers
Lyrics for Song: North Winds
Lyrics for Album: All Live And All Of The Night [1988]



I saw an orange robe burning

I saw youth on fire

I saw metal machine that were turning

On a generation that hadn't yet tired



I heard of two generations being murdered

In a Europe that was shrouded in black

I witnessed the birth pains of new nations

When the chosen people finally went back



North winds blowing

I wish it would blow all away

North winds blowing

I wish they would blow all away

I wish they would blow all away



I saw freedom in the shape of disease

And mainly men had to quench their desire

And while a few could do just as they pleased

I saw kids whose bellies were all on fire



When all is dead and war is over

When hollow victory has been won

Who will joing in the celebration

Or the evil that just can't be undone



North winds blowing

I wish it would blow all away

North winds blowing

I wish they would blow all away

I wish they would blow all away



I used to dream about destruction

But now that I feel it getting near

I spend my time watching the ocean

And waves are all I want to hear



I wish I was a believer

I'd spend less time in being sad

So may laws against disbelieving

Don't know who's good or who's bad



North winds blowing

Let them blow away

Blow all away

Blow all away

Blow all away

Blow all away
