Sahara Gold

Dance music from the corner bar Over dogs barking at a passing car And your hair tumbles down like Sahara gold Hot night, streets are full of life Carnival faces in Rembrandt light And your hair tumbles down like Sahara gold Half moon shining through the blind Paints a vision of a different kind And your hair tumbles down like Sahara gold Wet limbs striped with silver light Locked together at the center of the night And your hair tumbles down like Sahara gold Night bloom filling up the room With the salt and musk of lovers' rich perfume And your hair tumbles down like Sahara gold Animal grins and wild shining eyes Laughing and shouting we're a hundred stories high And your hair tumbles down like Sahara gold --- Sahara Gold - Bruce Cockburn
