The Amber Room

The amber room-Ewen Carruthers (listen&write by nac)

No one's gonna take us from this revolution's cage

Nothing gonna save us from this fire blood and rage

The children are asleep now, no need for us to lie

So take my hand my darling

Close your eyes, we will fly

Oh, how I loved your long hair, streaming loose across the sun

Catching its last fire for the night begun

Walking in the gardens, the way that lovers do

Where even in the beauty, roses bow their heads to you

And just before the sunset, we will walk alone

Through the corridors of power on motherland stone

To the place where fading sunlight, turns the greatest sin to gold

And everything is new again, nothing is ever old

In the amber room, in the amber room

(music)

I hear them talk in whispers, the orders come at last

Fill our hearts together, like a drum that is beating fast

The children are awake now, please tell them not to cry

Just gather them close, and together we will fly

And just before the sunrise, we will walk alone

Through the corridors of power, on marvel land stone

To the place where dawning sunlight, turns the greatest sin to gold

And everything is new again, nothing is ever old

In the amber room, in the amber room

In the amber room, in the amber room

(Music)

(Female vocal)

I hear them talk in whispers, the orders come at last

Fill our hearts together, like a drum that's beating fast

The children are awake now, please tell them not to cry

Just gather them around us, and together we will fly

(In the amber room)
