North Winds Blowing Lyrics - Stranglers

I saw an orange robe burning 

I saw a youth on fire 

I saw metal machines that were turning 

On a generation that hadn't yet tired 

I heard of two generations being murdered 

In a Europe that was shrouded in black 

I witnessed the birth pains of new nations 

When the chosen people finally went back 

North Winds Blowing 

I wish it would blow all away 

North Winds Blowing 

I wish they would blow all away 

I wish they would blow all away

I saw freedom in the shape of disease 

And mainly men had to quench their desire 

And while a few could do just as they pleased 

I saw kids whose bellies were all on fire 

When all is dead and war is over 

When hollow victory has been won 

Who will join in the celebration 

Of the evil that just can't be undone? 

North Winds Blowing 

I wish it would blow all away 

North Winds Blowing 

I wish they would blow all away 

I wish they would blow all away 

I used to dream about destruction 

But now that I feel it getting near 

I spend my time watching the ocean 

And waves are all I want to hear 

Photos 

I wish I was a believer 

I'd spend less time in being sad 

So many laws against disbelieving 

Don't know who's good or who's bad

North Winds Blowing 

North Winds Blowing 

North Winds Blowing 

North Winds Blowing 

North Winds Blowing
