Crimson on the White Sand by Magnum (Band) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Undo the years
Before we all go to sleep
And keep your memory bright
Your thoughts so sweet
[Verse 2]
Yeah forgotten faces
Eyes so deep and hollow
And the darkest places
Ride the moonlight desperado
[Chorus]
You're still bleeding
Dressed for glory
All the bells ring
Predatory
You got sorrow
Into your brain
All that followed
Was your own pain
[Verse 3]
Still hear those guns
They carry into the night
The echo of their goodbyes
Last words recite
[Verse 4]
Well no one can touch you
Lay your body down and
Tell what you have been through
Now there's crimson on the white sand
[Chorus]
You're still bleeding
Dressed for glory
All the bells ring
Predatory
You got sorrow
Into your brain
All that followed
Was your own pain
[Verse 5]
You remember well
Old photographs
Soon fade away
And footprints can lead you astray
[Bridge]
Well no one can touch you
Lay your body down and
Tell what you have been through
Now there's crimson on the white sand
[Chorus] (2x)
You're still bleeding
Dressed for glory
All the bells ring
Predatory
You got sorrow
Into your brain
All that followed
Was your own pain
Undo the years
Before we all go to sleep
And keep your memory bright
Your thoughts so sweet
[Verse 2]
Yeah forgotten faces
Eyes so deep and hollow
And the darkest places
Ride the moonlight desperado
[Chorus]
You're still bleeding
Dressed for glory
All the bells ring
Predatory
You got sorrow
Into your brain
All that followed
Was your own pain
[Verse 3]
Still hear those guns
They carry into the night
The echo of their goodbyes
Last words recite
[Verse 4]
Well no one can touch you
Lay your body down and
Tell what you have been through
Now there's crimson on the white sand
[Chorus]
You're still bleeding
Dressed for glory
All the bells ring
Predatory
You got sorrow
Into your brain
All that followed
Was your own pain
[Verse 5]
You remember well
Old photographs
Soon fade away
And footprints can lead you astray
[Bridge]
Well no one can touch you
Lay your body down and
Tell what you have been through
Now there's crimson on the white sand
[Chorus] (2x)
You're still bleeding
Dressed for glory
All the bells ring
Predatory
You got sorrow
Into your brain
All that followed
Was your own pain
