Letra da Música: Guiding Star - David Knopfler

Set sail by the guiding star
Where the moonlight dance the water
He's cast his nets so wide and far
For all lost sons and daughters

He spreads his wings my guiding star
Nails his truth to the conscience tree
He's cast his nets so wide and far
That never more can we be free
Can we be free

Black train waits in the early morn
Black wings eclipse the sun
And they shout so loud at the little ones
They say "Madam, what do you take us for barbarians?"
Barbarians

To spread your wings my guiding star
Shine forth upon the living waters
Promised land so near so far
For all lost sons and daughters
Across the water

Finds their clothes in the early dawn
Black clouds hang on the horizon
Bags unpacked and all are gone
And none to mourn or find them
Find them

So come for me my burning star
An arc across the water
If I've travelled free - I've travelled far
In the shadow of self slaughter
Sail on my guiding star across the water
