Declaration

And if you know what is the answer
Why don

Come roll out the red carpet,
Come bugler sound the horn
Cause the hero is returning
Gotta welcome him to his home
Don

Take this song of freedom
Put it on and arm yourself for the fight
Our hearts must have the courage
To keep on marching on and on

And now they're trying to take my life away
Forever young i cannot stay
Hey
On every corner i can see them there
They don't know my name they don't know my kind
They're after you with their promises
(promises of love)
They're after you to sign your life away
(yeah, yeaoh)

Sixty-eight guns will never die
Sixty-eight guns our battle cry
Sixty-eight guns
Sixty-eight guns
Oh, the sixty-eight

Living in the backstreets
That's our home from home
The painted walls were all we've ever known

Born into a war and peace
Forced to choose between a right and wrong
Each man kills the thing he loves
For better or for worse
Face to face with a ragged truth
Mixed up and torn in two
And turned your back on the only thing
That could save you from yourself

Where were you hiding
When the storm broke
When the rain began to fall
When the thunder and the lightning struck
And the rain and the four winds did howl

After all time building up
Comes inevitable knocking down
(one by one )
Comes receivers liars gamblers
Pick pocket entourage
(two by two)
Selling out is a cardinal sin
Sinning with a safety net (three by three)
They say that all things come in threes
Here comes the third degree

Where were you hiding
When the storm broke
When the rain began to fall
When the thunder and the lightning struck
And the rain and the four winds did howl

All cards are marked
And all fates will collide
The truth is the truth
Or the truth is surely a lie
Get back in your shelter
If you can't come down off the fence
And one more question
Where were you?
Where were you?

Where were you hiding
When the storm broke
When the rain began to fall
When the thunder and the lightning struck
And the four winds did howl
Where were you hiding
When the storm broke
When the rain began to fall
Where were you hiding
When the storm broke
When the rain began to fall
Where were you hiding

Four
Winds
Howl

Love on this wasteland holds no dominion
I refuse to lay me down
On the grapevine comes the saying
"son, you'll reap whatever you sow"
I sow the seeds of my love
Deep undying true love i sow

There is beauty out there somewhere
I will leave no stone unturned
There's a guitar and a bugle
I hear the sound of distant drums
Fire and water rage through my mind
(love on)
Love on this wasteland
I cannot find

And there is a howl howl howling wind
A ringing around my ears
And a wild wild wind is a blowing
Tearing down my tears

There is virtue truth abounding
Peace will come to everyman
And there's a landmark on the skyline
There is a sign standing in the road
Sail on my brother
Sail on through the night
(love on)
Love on this wasteland is waiting on down the line

And there is a howl howl howling wind
A ringing around my ears
And a wild wild wind is a blowing
Tearing down my tears

Forty days in the desert sand
Forty nights on my hands and knees
Forty days in the howling wind
In the howling wind

Love on this wasteland holds no dominion
I refuse to lay me down
On the grapevine comes the saying
"son, you'll reap whatever you sow"
I sow the seeds of my love, my love
Deep undying true love's what i sow

There's a howl howl howling wind
A ringing around my ears
And a wild wild wind is a blowing
Tearing down my tears

And there's a howl howl howling wind
A ringing around my ears
And there's a wild wild wind is a blowing
Tearing down my tears
