I open my eyes, everything shines
I swim as the breeze blows down the coast
Down on my luck, breathing my last
Dirty old hands carry me home
Red sky turning round
Black rain falling down
If you've got love
You better hope that that's enough
Sandstorm cuts your skin
Black clouds circling
If you've got love
You better hope that that's enough
You came from the south
To Lebanon shores
Folding our clothes,
Dived in too deep
The blackest of seas glittering red
Lit by the fire over our heads
Red sky turning round
Black rain falling down
If you've got love
You better hope that that's enough
Sandstorm cuts your skin
Songbirds circling
If you've got love
You'd better hope that that's enough
You'd better hope that that's enough
I swim as the breeze blows down the coast
Down on my luck, breathing my last
Dirty old hands carry me home
Red sky turning round
Black rain falling down
If you've got love
You better hope that that's enough
Sandstorm cuts your skin
Black clouds circling
If you've got love
You better hope that that's enough
You came from the south
To Lebanon shores
Folding our clothes,
Dived in too deep
The blackest of seas glittering red
Lit by the fire over our heads
Red sky turning round
Black rain falling down
If you've got love
You better hope that that's enough
Sandstorm cuts your skin
Songbirds circling
If you've got love
You'd better hope that that's enough
You'd better hope that that's enough

Nell’album intitolato “Strangeland”
Una canzone che il tastierista della band, Tim Rice-Oxley, scrisse dopo aver visto il film d’animazione “Waltz With Bashir”, diretto nel 2008 dall’israeliano Ari Folman e incentrato sulla guerra in Libano dei primi anni 80 ed il massacro di Sabra e Chatila.
