lyrics

Wait till morning, rest your head
First light I’ll take you dancing, we can sin before we’re dead
I want to swing you around in my arms
And move with you until my legs work no more

I’ve never held anyone like this before
To risky to lose my life for one brief moment
And then if were caught I couldn’t love you anymore
All we’d breath is soil and be turned to dust once more

They met at the crossroads where east meets west
Fiddle in hand he taught her the dance at its simplest
Step by step he drew her closer
The hours flew right by into the sunset

You showed me how to live on our own land
Against armoured boots who hurt ‘cause they can
Let’s take our chance meet tomorrow where I’ll be
On our crossroads we can dance and love we can be free

She waited
How could she know that he’d been hunted in his sleep
For breaking a law which deprives people their own tradition
She’ll wait there each day to return what was given

I’ll be at the crossroads where east meets west
