Eastern Wind Lyrics - Chris De Burgh

Well my furrows are filled with corn, 

I have my woman to keep me warm, 

But there's one thing that I do fear, 

That Eastern wind is getting near, 

There's a shotgun beside my bed, 

This is my country, where I was born and bred, 

But I am sure, as the willow will grow, 

That Eastern wind is going to blow, 

Blowing a hole in my life, Eastern wind, 

Running away with my life, Eastern wind;

20 Classic Christmas Lyrics to Celebrate The Holiday Season 

There's a woman who reads the stars, 

She sees Warlords on the planet Mars, 

And she said, "Boy, you'd better beware, 

That restless wind is getting near, 

Blowing a hole in your life, Eastern wind, 

Running away with your life, Eastern wind..." 

They are coming, they are coming, 

they are coming, look out! 

In my dream, I saw a crowd, 

They were burning the palace down, 

I saw a mad old man, and I ran to the door, 

And then that wind began to roar, 

And when they come, they'll find me here, 

I will not run, they will not see my fear, 

And I will fight to the very end, 

Before that wind I will never bend,

If they're blowing a hole in my life, Eastern wind, 

Oh running away with my life, Eastern wind, 

Taking the plough from my hands, Eastern wind, 

Taking every bit of my land, Eastern wind...
